Description

Ingredients

• 1¼ c. all-purpose flour
• ¾ c. natural unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1 c. sugar
• ⅔ c. brown sugar
• ¾ c. (1½ sticks) butter, melted
• 2 eggs
• 3 tbsp. whole milk
• ½ tsp. baking powder
• 1 tbsp. cornstarch
• pinch of salt
• 2 tsp. vanilla extract
• Fudge Ganache:
• 1 c. semi-sweet chocolate chips
• ½ c. milk chocolate chips
• ½ c. heavy cream

Directions

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a 9x13 baking dish with foil and lightly spray with baking spray such as Pam, set aside.
• In the bowl of a stand mixer, beat melted butter, sugars and vanilla until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add eggs, one at a time, mixing until incorporated.
• In a medium size mixing bowl whisk together flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, cornstarch, and salt. With mixing speed on low, alternate adding dry ingredients and milk. Mix just until combined.
• Remove bowl from stand and pour batter into prepared pan. The batter will be thick, so using a rubber spatula, spread into an even layer. Place in oven and bake for 18-25 minutes (I live in high altitude so my bars tend to bake quicker). The brownies will be done, so do not over-bake or you will have dry brownies! Remove from oven and allow to cool in the pan.
• Meanwhile to prepare the ganache, in a 2 c. glass measuring cup, combine chocolate chips and heavy cream. Microwave on half powder (mine is usually power 10, so I did 5) for one minute, stir, then repeat. Stir chocolate until all of the chips are melted and it becomes smooth. Beat for 1 minute and then pour over the top of the brownies. Spread evenly and sprinkle with desired toppings. Serve warm or cold.
