Anonymous asked: The killer brownies look soooo good. How many bars of bittersweet or dark chocolate will render 12 oz.?
It depends on the chocolate bar/size you choose. I most often use imported chocolate from Belgium, available at Trader Joes in 16 oz. bars. Choose bittersweet (or) 72% dark. In a pinch, a standard size bag of semi-sweet chocolate chips (12 oz or 2 C.) will work too and Joes stocks good quality chips. However, semi-sweet chocolate (chips or bars) typically have more sweetener.
FYI: Milk chocolate and dark chocolate also available at Joes.
