These from Williams-Sonoma are delish.  I've never used the chocolate extract and they turn out just fine.

Triple-Chocolate Brownies
5 oz. semisweet chocolate
2 oz. unsweetened chocolate
1/2 c. unsalted butter
3 tbs. cocoa powder
3 eggs
1 1/4 c. sugar
1 1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
1 tsp. chocolate extract
1/2 tsp. salt
1 c. flour 

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray an 8-inch square baking pan with non-stick spray. Chop the chocolate, quarter the butter, and in the top of a double-boiler, melt the chocolates and butter, stirring occasionally until smooth. Whisk in the cocoa until smooth and set the mixture aside to cool. In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, sugar, vanilla & chocolate extracts, and salt until combined. Whisk the warm chocolate mixture into the egg mixture then stir in the flour until just combined. Pour batter into the prepared pan and bake until toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a small amount of sticky crumbs clinging to it, about 35-40 minutes. Cool to room temp and cut into squares.
