Ingredients

• 1 cup unsalted butter
• 8 oz bittersweet chocolate (chopped)
• 1.5 cups granulated sugar
• 0.5 cup light brown sugar
• 4 pieces large eggs
• 2 tsp pure vanilla extract
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 0.25 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1 tsp chili powder
• 0.5 tsp ground cinnamon
• 1.5 tbsp habanero hot sauce
• 0.5 cup dark chocolate chips
• 0.5 tsp salt
• 2 tbsp powdered sugar (for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x9-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a medium saucepan over low heat, melt the unsalted butter and bittersweet chocolate together, stirring frequently until smooth. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, light brown sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract until pale and creamy, about 2 minutes.

Step 4

Slowly add the melted chocolate mixture into the sugar-egg mixture, stirring constantly to combine completely.

Step 5

Sift together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, chili powder, cinnamon, and salt in a separate bowl.

Step 6

Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined. Do not overmix.

Step 7

Gently stir in the habanero hot sauce and dark chocolate chips, ensuring they are evenly distributed.

Step 8

Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and smooth the top with a spatula.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs clinging to it.

Step 10

Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan before cutting them into 12 squares.

Step 11

Dust the brownies lightly with powdered sugar before serving for an extra touch of sweetness.
