Best Ever Chewy Brownies

My BEST Ever Chewy Brownies are just as chewy as boxed brownies but with better chocolate flavor. One bowl recipe, ready in less than 1 hour. I've made this recipe over 200 times (no joke!).

Ingredients

Yields 9 servings

  • 5 tablespoons unsalted butter (71 grams)
  • 1 1/4 cups granulated sugar (249 grams)
  • 2 large eggs plus 1 egg yolk, (cold)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/3 cup neutral oil ((like vegetable or avocado)) (74 grams)
  • 3/4 cup cocoa powder* (75 grams)
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, (measured correctly) (63 grams)
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
  • 3/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips (128 grams)

Method

5 steps

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 325°F. Line an 8 by 8-inch light-colored metal pan** with foil or parchment paper and spray with nonstick cooking spray.

  2. 2

    In a microwave-safe bowl, add the butter and sugar. Microwave for about 1 minute, or until the butter is melted. Whisk in the eggs and egg yolk, whisking vigorously for 1 minute. Whisk in the vanilla, then stir in the oil and cocoa powder.

  3. 3

    With a rubber spatula, stir in the flour, cornstarch, and salt until combined. Stir in the chocolate chips.

  4. 4

    Spread the brownie batter evenly into the prepared pan. Place in the oven and bake for 30 minutes, or until the brownies are set and a cake tester inserted into the center has moist crumbs attached. Do not overcook. Let cool completely to solidify before cutting and serving.

  5. 5

    Brownies can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. Brownies will be gooey when served warm, chewy when served at room temperature, and fudgy when served chilled.
