Ingredients
8ounceswhite chocolate baking bar,finely chopped
10tablespoonsunsalted butter,cubed & cold
1cupgranulated sugar
2largeeggs,room temperature
1largeegg yolk,room temperature
2teaspoonsvanilla extract
1¾cupsall-purpose flour
1teaspoonsalt
¾cupwhite chocolate chips,divided into ½ cup and ¼ cup
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a 9x9 metal baking pan with parchment paper and set aside.
In the bowl of a double boiler over medium-low heat, melt the chopped white chocolate and unsalted butter cubes until the chocolate is smooth, and no lumps remain. Be sure to whisk often to ensure your white chocolate does not burn or seize up.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, eggs, egg yolk, and vanilla extract until fully combined.
While whisking constantly, slowly drizzle the melted white chocolate mixture into the large bowl to fully incorporate all the wet ingredients. Whisk until smooth.
Add the all-purpose flour and salt to the bowl of wet ingredients and stir together until you have a thick, smooth batter.
Fold ½ cup of the white chocolate chips into the brownie batter until evenly distributed, then spread the white chocolate brownie batter evenly into the prepared 9x9 baking pan.
Sprinkle the remaining ¼ cup white chocolate chips evenly over the top of the batter and bake for 30-33 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden and the center is fully set with no jiggle to it. You may need to cover your pan of white chocolate brownies after 15 minutes to prevent your edges from getting too dark as your brownies finish baking.
Allow the white chocolate brownies to cool completely in the baking pan before removing them (lifting them out using the overhanging parchment paper) and slicing them into serving pieces.
Notes
You can use the microwave to melt your white chocolate bar and butter. Use a microwave-safe bowl and melt the chocolate in 30-second to 1-minute intervals, stirring between intervals. You will need to follow your manufacturer's instructions or the instructions on the packaging of the white chocolate baking bar for specific melting instructions.
When using the double boiler method, be sure that your heat is not too high and causes a lot of steam to escape. Be very careful not to get any of the hot water or steam into the melted chocolate.It will still have some crumb stuck to it. That is due to the fact that these are very thick and fudgy. A little bit of crumb is fine. You just do not want a thick, wet amount still attached to your toothpick.
