Old-Fashioned Buttermilk Fudge Brownies

I found this recipe in the BYU Magazine. It was contributed by Erin Renouf Mylroie. I made it for a potluck dessert party and was very pleased with the results. If you like chocolate, you'll love these!

• 3/4 cup butter
• 4 oz. good quality unsweetened chocolate (I use Baker's in the orange box)
• 2 cups granulated sugar
• 3 eggs
• 1 T. vanilla
• 1/2 cup buttermilk
• 1 1/2 cups flour, plus 2 T. flour, divided
• 1 1/2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
• 2 T. powdered sugar

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. In a large microwaveable bowl, combine butter and chocolate. Melt butter and chocolate in microwave at 50% power in 1-minute intervals, stirring in between. Do not let mixture sizzle. When mixture is completely melted and smooth, immediately stir in sugar; continue stirring until smooth. Add eggs, one at a time. Stir in vanilla and buttermilk. Add 1 1/2 cups flour.
3. Toss chocolate chips with remaining 2 tablespoons flour in a small bowl; add to batter.
4. Pour into greased 9-by-13-inch baking dish and bake for 28 to 33 minutes, or until toothpick inserted into center has just a few fudgy crumbs. Let cool for 30 minutes. Dust with powdered sugar.
