The post Chewy Chocolate Chip Brownies first appeared on kingcooks.]]> So, what are some qualities to a perfect brownie? To me, it’s gotta be soft, chewy, have crispy edges and packed with chocolate. After many failed attempts, I present to you exactly that! Chewy chocolate chip brownies! guaranteed to please and exceed expectations. Let’s make some brownies!

INGREDIENTS

Making homemade brownies isn’t as hard as you would think. It starts with quality ingredients and the perfect blend of dry and wet ingredients. For this recipe, we will be using: flour, sugar, unsweetened cocoa powder, butter, eggs, chocolate chips, vanilla, salt, oil and baking soda. All items most, if not all, people have in their kitchen at any given time, so its perfect!

BROWNIE BATTER
In a large bowl, mix together warm melted butter and sugar. You want the butter to be warm to help dissolve some of the sugar crystals so you end up with a smooth batter. You will need two whole eggs and one egg yolk. As you are mixing, whisk in the two eggs one at a time, adding the egg yolk last. Next, stir in the vanilla extract and vegetable oil.

 Once incorporated, mix in the cocoa powder. This is when your batter will start to look delicious! 🙂 The cocoa powder is the first dry ingredient you will add and has the most influence over the final taste of your brownies. A high quality cocoa powder will lead to a deeper chocolate flavor.

Mix the cocoa powder in until smooth.

Next, switch to a spatula to mix in the dry ingredients. Add in the flour, baking soda, cornstarch, and salt. Gently folding in the ingredients from the bottom. Be careful not to over mix at this step, you don’t want tough brownies! Remember, we’re aiming for soft and chewy!

Next, gently fold in the chocolate chips. Finally, transfer the brownie batter to a 9×9 baking pan sprayed with nonstick cooking spray.

Top with additional chocolate chips and bake in the oven for 30 minutes, or until the edges are set and a cake test is successfully performed at the center of the brownies.
TIP: A cake test is when you insert a toothpick at the center of the pan and it comes back clean or with pieces of cake attached. If there is any uncooked batter left on the toothpick, return to oven for 5 additional minutes. Be careful not to overcook at this point, since the brownies will continue to cook as they cool.

Let it cool completely before cutting and serving. They will last for up to a week in an airtight container.

But good luck keeping them around for that long, lol. They are perfect, chewy, moist, and chocolaty!
