Triple Chocolate Brownies

Desserts & Chocolate
This is one of the first recipes that I made repeatedly which is why it inspired the first RECI-TEE t-shirt I designed. In the Stone Age, as I refer to my youth, I thought it was very clever of me to chop up Hershey’s milk and dark chocolate bar and mix them into the batter for these.

- 4 ounces unsweetened chocolate
- 2 large eggs
- 1- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

- 1/2 cup milk chocolate chunks
- 1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chunks
