• For the brownies: Place the butter and chocolate in a large heatproof bowl. Add 2 inches of water to a saucepan just wide enough to hold the bowl a few inches above the water and bring to a simmer over high heat. Reduce the heat to low and place the bowl over the water (make sure the water doesn't boil and the bottom of the bowl doesn't touch the simmering water or the chocolate may scorch, making it grainy instead of smooth). Cook, stirring occasionally with a rubber spatula, until melted.
