Thanks for the answer.
I know that Intel specified a maximum of 8 GB per module, but that seems to be mostly because at the time there were no larger modules available. The same has happened with older Intel CPUs.
I've seen Broadwell laptops with 2 16 GB modules myself, so I know it certainly does work. :) According to this article even Intel's own NUC computers support 16 GB modules: http://www.pcworld.com/article/2894509/want-32gb-of-ram-in-your-laptop-or-nuc-you-can-finally-do-it.html
Since the Broadwell desktop CPUs are pretty much mobile CPUs in a desktop CPU case, I thought it might work there as well.
