Thanks to gothicgirl for sharing her recipe for Dark Chocolate Chip Brownies!  I made them yesterday as the dessert course of a belated Mother's Day dinner (my mom was out of town last weekend), and they were delicious!  I consider myself kind of a seasoned brownie baker (though really, who isn't?), having tried quite a few recipes and these were definitely a new take on an old standard, using a combination of mainly dutch processed cocoa with some semi-sweet chocolate - I used 88%.

The only change that I might make next time is using slightly less sugar since I like a more bittersweet chocolate flavor.

I didn't bother frosting them since I served them with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top!
