WHITE CHOCOLATE AND MACADAMIA BROWNIES WITH HOT FUDGE SAUCE

Category: Brownies/Blondies

1 cup flour
1/4 tsp salt
2 large eggs, room temperature
1/2 cup sugar
7 oz white chocolate, chopped and melted
1/2 cup butter, melted
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 cup chopped unsalted, macadamia nuts
5 oz white chocolate, coarsely chopped

Sauce
3/4 cup whipping cream
1/4 cup sugar
2 tbsp butter
5 oz bittersweet chocolate, chopped
2 tbsp corn syrup

Preheat oven to 350. Butter and flour a 13x9 inch baking pan. Sift flour with salt into a bowl. Using a mixer, beat eggs until frothy. Add sugar 1 tbsp at a time, and beat until pale yellow, and slowly dissolving ribbons form when beaters are lifted. Gently fold in chocolate--mixture may lose volume. Add melted butter and vanilla, stirring well. The mixture may appear curdled at this point. Fold in flour. Fold in nuts and chopped chocolate. Pour batter into prepared pan. Bake until an inserted tester yields not quite clean, approximately 25 minutes. DO NOT OVERBAKE! Cool in pan.

For the sauce: Cook cream and sugar over low heat until sugar dissolves, stirring. Add chocolate and stir until melted and smooth. Add butter and corn syrup, and stir until batter melts. Serve warm.
