Gabriel’s first mission is a brownie adapted from this recipe:
https://thegingeredwhisk.com/mega-chocolate-sourdough-brownies/

 I reduced choc chips to only half cup and valrhona cocoa to 2 tablespoons

Ingredients
  • 1/2 cup  bittersweet chocolate chips (I used Ghirardelli)
  • 90g unsalted butter
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 2 whole eggs, room temperature
  • 1/2 cup 100% hydration sourdough starter discard, room temperature
  • 2 tbsp cocoa powder

  1. Preheat oven to 160 degrees C.
  2. Melt chocolate and butter in a large bowl over a boiling water bath. Stir constantly. 
  3. Turn off the fire and whisk in the sugar. 
  4. Add the eggs one at a time, whisking to combine each addition.
  5. Sift the cocoa powder over the chocolate and stir to combine.
  6. Add the starter and stir gently to mix. 
  7. Place the batter into a 7 x 7 square pan and bake for about 30-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.

Lovely crispy top fresh out of the oven.  After one night in the fridge, it was really fudgey!
This recipe is definitely a keeper!

Gabriel is alive!


Gabriel is alive and out of ICU after 6 months of hibernating in the fridge 😀
