  • Yield: 12 brownies
  • Cooking Time: 1 Hour 10 Minutes

Ingredients

  • 1½ sticks unsalted butter, melted, plus more for brushing
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 2 Tbsp licorice root powder
  • 2 tsp ground anise seeds
  • ½ tsp kosher salt
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup packed brown sugar
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 2 oz bittersweet chocolate, chopped
  • ½ cup chopped soft black licorice chews (3 oz)
How to Make It
  1. Preheat the oven to 350°. Line a 9-inch-square baking pan with paper or foil, leaving 2 inches of overhang on 2 sides. Brush the paper with butter.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk the flour with the cocoa powder, licorice root powder, anise and salt. In a large bowl, whisk the melted butter with both sugars, then whisk in the eggs and vanilla. Stir in the dry ingredients, then three-fourths of the chocolate and licorice chews. Scrape the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top. Gently press the remaining chocolate and licorice chews into the batter.
  3. Bake the brownies for about 40 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, with a few moist crumbs attached. Let the brownies cool completely, then lift them out of the pan using the paper. Cut the brownies into 12 rectangles and serve.
