1 1/2 pounds (680 grams) semisweet or bittersweet chocolate, chopped
1/2 lb (226 grams) unsalted butter, cut into pieces
6 large eggs
1 lb (400 grams) granulated white sugar
1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
1/2 lb (210 grams) all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (177 degrees C) and place rack in center of oven. Butter (or spray with a nonstick cooking spray) a 9 x 13 inch (23 x 33 cm) pan. Then line the pan with parchment paper.
Melt the chocolate and butter in the top half of a double boiler over simmering water. Set aside. (Can also use a stainless steel bowl over a saucepan with simmering water.)
Meanwhile, in a large bowl whisk (can use a hand mixer) together the eggs and sugar. Fold in the melted chocolate mixture and vanilla extract.
Whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt and then fold into the chocolate and sugar mixture until well combined.
Pour into the prepared pan and bake for about 45 - 55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Remove from oven and let cool on a wire rack. Serve at room temperature or chilled. Store leftovers in the refrigerator. These freeze very well.
Makes 24 - 2 inch (5 cm) brownies.
