Equipment
- 8x8 baking pan glass preferred
- Medium saucepan
- Small saucepan
- Large mixing bowl
- Whisk or silicone spatula
- Measuring cups
- Measuring spoons
- Cooling rack
- Nonstick spray
Ingredients
- ½ cup All Purpose Flour
- 8 tablespoon Salted Butter
- ½ cup Brown Sugar
- ½ cup Sugar
- 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
- 2 Eggs
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla
- ½ cup Cocoa Powder
- ½ cup Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips
- ½ cup Milk Chocolate Chips
- ½ cup Heavy Whipping Cream
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and generously spray an 8x8 baking pan, preferably glass.
- Next, add both sugars and the cocoa powder to a medium saucepan and stir until smooth. Remove from heat once fully combined.
- Then, transfer the chocolate mixture to a large mixing bowl. Add the vanilla and eggs and mix until smooth and well combined.
- Gently fold in the flour and cornstarch until no dry spots remain.
- Spread the batter evenly into the prepared pan and bake for 22 to 25 minutes. The brownies should look set but still jiggle slightly in the center when you gently shake the pan.
- While the brownies bake, prepare the icing. Add the heavy whipping cream and chocolate chips to a small saucepan and heat over low to medium heat, stirring until melted and smooth. Do not let the mixture boil.
- Once the brownies finish baking, let them cool completely in the pan. Pour the icing over the top and spread evenly.
- Finish by adding your topping of choice (candy, sprinkles, etc) then chill the brownies for about 1-2 hours before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
