- 4 ounces (113g) unsweetened baking chocolate coarsely chopped
- ¾ cup (170g) unsalted butter
- 1¾ cups (350g) sugar
- 3 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons (10g) unsweetened cocoa powder (regular or Dutch process)
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ¾ teaspoon ground cayenne pepper
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 cup (124g) all-purpose flour
- ¾ cup (125g) mini chocolate chips
Topping
- 1 tablespoon powdered sugar
- ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon unsweetened cocoa powder (regular or Dutch process)

Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a 9x13-inch pan with foil and spray with cooking spray.
Place the baking chocolate and butter in a large, microwave safe bowl. Heat on HIGH power for 2-3 minutes, stirring every 30 seconds, until chocolate is smooth. Stir in sugar.
Add eggs, vanilla, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, ¾ teaspoon cayenne, salt, and 2 tablespoons cocoa and stir well.
Add flour and stir carefully. Stir in mini chocolate chips.
Spread brownie batter in prepared pan. Bake for 20-25 minutes, until a toothpick comes out with just a few crumbs stuck to it. Let them cool completely before slicing into squares.
Whisk powdered sugar, ¼ teaspoon cocoa, ¼ teaspoon cinnamon, and a pinch (up to ⅛ teaspoon) cayenne pepper. Sprinkle over sliced brownies.
