  • 3 eggs (room temperature)
  • ¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • ⅓ cup cornstarch

  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 egg (room temperature)
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven: Preheat the oven to 350°F.
  2. Prepare pan: Lightly spray a 9-inch square baking pan with cooking spray and line with parchment paper, leaving an overhang.
  3. Brownie Layer: In a large bowl, melt chocolate chips and butter. Stir in sugar and vanilla. Add eggs one at a time. Whisk together cocoa powder, cornstarch, and salt. Combine dry mixture with wet mixture, then stir in mini chocolate chips. Pour two-thirds of the batter into the pan.
