Key Ingredients

When it comes to choosing your ingredients, it’s all about the quality. Choose a high-quality sourdough starter for the best flavor, and make sure you’re using real vanilla extract and high-quality chocolate chips. Realize that a mix of dark and milk chocolate is actually okay and wonderful is fine too. When it comes to the chocolate chips, look for a mix of dark and milk chocolate, which will add a rich, velvety texture to your brownies. There is also a notion that a mix of all-purpose and bread flour will turn the texture lighter. I choose it and shooowing your sourdough with dark chocolate pictures.
