Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup Unsalted butter
  • 3 TBSP Dry milk powder
  • 1 cup Unsweetened cocoa powder (sifted)
  • 3/4 cup All-purpose flour
  • 1 TBSP Cornstarch
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • 1 cup White granulated sugar
  • 3/4 cup Powdered sugar
  • 3 Large eggs (room temperature)
  • 1 Egg yolk (room temperature)
  • 2 TBSP Oil (canola or vegetable)
  • 1 tsp Pure vanilla extract
  • 1 cup Semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Melt unsalted butter in a large frying pan over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Wait for it to become bubbly and foamy before adding the milk powder. Stir until the mixture turns amber in color.
  2. Add sifted cocoa powder to the butter mixture and heat for 30 seconds. Transfer the butter to a bowl and place it in the freezer for 15 minutes to cool.
  3. Preheat the oven to 350℉. Prepare a 9×9 inch square baking pan by spraying it with nonstick baking spray and lining the bottom and two sides with parchment paper, then spray again.
  4. In a separate bowl, combine all-purpose flour, cornstarch, and salt. Set the mixture aside.
  5. In a large mixing bowl, beat together granulated sugar, powdered sugar, eggs, and egg yolk using a mixer on high speed for 3 minutes.
  6. Gently fold in the cooled butter, oil, and vanilla with a spatula, then gradually mix in the dry ingredient mixture. Finally, fold in the chocolate chips until just combined.
  7. Pour the brownie batter into the prepared pan and bake for 34-36 minutes, until the edges are set while keeping the middle slightly underdone.
  8. Cool the brownies in the pan on a rack. After cooling, lift them out of the pan and cut into 16 squares.

Notes

Ensure that the butter is properly browned for best flavor.
Cool the brownies completely before cutting for cleaner slices.
These brownies can be stored in an airtight container for several days.
