Prep Time
25-30 minutes
1 ounce ( 1 square ) unsweetened chocolate 1/4 cup butter, softened
1/2 cup sugar
1/3 cup brown sugar

1/2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
3 T unsweetened cocoa
1/2 cup plus 2 T buttermilk
1/2 tsp gluten-free vanilla
1/2 cup mini chocolate chips
Melt chocolate in microwave according to package directions; let cool to room temp. Beat together butter and sugars until light and creamy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the cooled chocolate and vanilla.
In separate bowl, stir together dry ingredients. Alternate adding the flour mix and buttermilk to the egg and sugar mixture and blend ( ending with flour). Do not over beat. Stir in chocolate chips.
