Ingredients
 

  • ¾ cup All-purpose flour, Spooned and leveled
  • 1½ cups Granulated sugar
  • ½ cup Brown sugar, packed
  • 3 Eggs, Room temperature
  • 1 Egg yolk, Room temperature
  • 1 tablespoon Vanilla extract
  • 1½ tablespoon Corn starch
  • 1 cup Cocoa powder, Dutch-processed for a richer flavor
  • 1 cup Semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 tablespoon Espresso powder
  • ¾ cup Butter
  • ¼ cup Oil, Any vegetable oil
  • ½ teaspoon Salt

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 325°F. Line an 8X8 square pan with parchment paper. Leave an extra piece from the side to make it easy to lift the brownies.
  • Melt the butter in the microwave and add the oil. Let cool down until you do the next step.
    ¾ cup Butter, ¼ cup Oil
  • In a medium-sized bowl, sift all the dry ingredients, including flour, cornstarch, salt, espresso powder, and cocoa powder
    ¾ cup All-purpose flour, 1½ tablespoon Corn starch, 1 tablespoon Espresso powder, ½ teaspoon Salt, 1 cup Cocoa powder
  • Set the stand mixer on whisk attachment and whisk the brown sugar, granulated sugar, eggs, egg yolk, and vanilla extract. This step should take about 3-4 minutes until the mixture is light and fluffy.
    1½ cups Granulated sugar, ½ cup Brown sugar, packed, 3 Eggs, 1 Egg yolk, 1 tablespoon Vanilla extract
  • using a spatula, add the melted butter and oil mixture to the egg mixture and mix until just combined. DO NOT OVERMIX.
    ¾ cup Butter, ¼ cup Oil
  • Add the dry ingredients and the chocolate chips. DO NOT OVERMIX.
    ¾ cup All-purpose flour, 1½ tablespoon Corn starch, 1 cup Cocoa powder, 1 tablespoon Espresso powder, ½ teaspoon Salt
  • Pour the batter into the prepared pan and distribute evenly.
  • Bake for 20-25 minutes. The edges start to roll over and set. The center will be gooier, and that is okay. Brownies will keep baking as they cool down.
  • Remove from the oven and let cool completely. IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO LET THE BROWNIES COOL DOWN BEFORE CUTTING THEM. Cutting the brownies early will leave you with a big brownie mess.

Notes

  • Take your time with mixing the sugar and the eggs. This step will build the structure of the brownies.
  • Sift all dry ingredients to remove any lumps.
  • After adding the flour, DO NOT OVERMIX the batter.
