Chocolate Chipotle Brownies

These brownies are pretty amazing. If you aren't very familiar with chipotle chili powder, it gives a smoky-spice flavor, which goes great with chocolate and the cinnamon. Most grocery stores probably sell it, but if not, try World Market. I usually get it there in the bagged spice aisle for 99 cents. They also sell glass spice jars with the kitchenware for 99 cents to keep it in.
If you need to make a big pan of brownies, you can probably double the recipe and use a 13x9.

Serves: about 24 squares

Ingredients
1 teaspoon plus 1 cup butter (2 sticks)
1 tablespoon plus 1 cup all-purpose flour
4 ounces unsweetened chocolate, roughly chopped
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
3/4 teaspoon ground chipotle chile pepper
4 eggs
1 cup chopped Mexican chocolate or semisweet chocolate morsels

Directions
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
Grease and flour an 11 by 7-inch baking pan or dish with 1 teaspoon of the butter and 1 tablespoon of the flour. Heat the remaining butter and the unsweetened chocolate in a saucepan over low heat, stirring constantly, until melted. In a medium bowl, stir together remaining flour, sugar, cinnamon, and ground chipotle. Add sugar mixture to melted chocolate mixture, stirring to combine. Add eggs, mixing until smooth. Stir in chopped chocolate or chocolate morsels.
Pour mixture into the prepared baking pan or dish. Bake until the center is set, 35 to 40 minutes. Cool completely and then cut into small squares. Sprinkle with powdered sugar if desired.
