Description

These Brown Butter Brownies boast a rich, nutty flavor with a fudgy texture, made from simple ingredients like butter, cocoa, and eggs. Perfect for a sweet treat!


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. Melt unsalted butter in a frying pan over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until it starts foaming. Add dry milk powder and stir until the butter turns amber in color.
  2. Add sifted cocoa powder to the mixture and heat for another 30 seconds. Pour the butter mixture into a bowl and chill in the freezer for 15 minutes.
  3. Preheat the oven to 350℉. Prepare a 9X9 inch square pan with nonstick spray and line with parchment paper.
  4. In a separate bowl, mix together the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, and salt. Set aside.
  5. In a large mixing bowl, beat together white granulated sugar, powdered sugar, large eggs, and egg yolk using a mixer on high speed for 3 minutes.
  6. Add cooled butter, oil, and vanilla extract to the mixture, then mix with a spatula. Gradually fold in the dry ingredients and chocolate chips.
  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 underbaked. It will finish cooking as it cools.
  8. Let the brownies cool in the pan on a rack before removing and cutting into 16 squares.

Notes

For a richer flavor, make sure the butter is browned properly before adding the other ingredients.
Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
You can use dark chocolate chips for a more intense chocolate flavor.
