Ingredients
  • 3 tablespoons flax seed, ground finely
  • ½ cup water
  • 10 tablespoons butter, cubed
  • 2 ounces unsweetened chocolate
  • 4 ounces bittersweet or semisweet chocolate
  • ½ cup sugar
  • ½ cup brown sugar
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • 2 teaspoons peppermint extract
  • 1 cup flour
  • ½ cup semisweet chocolate chips
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Line an 8x8 baking pan with parchment paper on the bottom coming up two sides. Spray the entire pan and paper with cooking spray. Combine the ground flax seed with the water, stir together, and set aside to gel.
  2. Melt the butter and chocolate together in the top of a double boiler until smooth. Remove from the heat and stir in the sugars. Sprinkle the salt and baking powder over the batter and stir to combine. Stir in the peppermint extract, flax seed mixture, and the flour until combined. Stir in the chocolate chips. Spoon the batter into the pan and bake until the edges are crisp and the center is just barely cooked, about 40-45 minutes minutes. Let cool completely in the pan in the refrigerator before removing and slicing.
