Description

These Brown Butter Brownies combine rich flavors with a simple preparation. Made with unsweetened cocoa powder and chocolate chips, they are a delightful treat perfect for dessert lovers looking for an easy homemade dessert.


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. In a large frying pan over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter while stirring occasionally. When foamy, add the dry milk powder and continue stirring until the butter turns amber.
  2. Stir in the sifted cocoa powder for 30 seconds, then pour the mixture into 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 pan by spraying it with nonstick spray and lining the bottom and two sides with parchment paper, then spray again.
  4. In a small bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, and salt. Set aside.
  5. In a large mixing bowl, beat the white granulated sugar, powdered sugar, eggs, and egg yolk using a mixer on high speed for 3 minutes.
  6. Stop the mixer and add the cooled butter, oil, and vanilla extract. Mix with a rubber spatula, then fold in the dry ingredients until just combined. Finally, add the semi-sweet chocolate chips and mix gently.
  7. Pour the brownie batter into the prepared pan and bake for 34-36 minutes, until the edges are set and the center is slightly undercooked. It will continue to cook while cooling.
  8. Allow brownies to cool in the pan on a cooling rack. Once cooled, remove from the pan and cut into 16 squares.

Notes

Make sure to use room temperature eggs for better mixing.
Do not overbake the brownies; they should be soft in the middle for the best texture.
Cooling the butter mixture helps achieve the perfect brownie consistency.
