Ingredients
Brownies
- 3/4 cup (90g) all-purpose flour, spooned and leveled
- 1/4 cup (20g) dutch-process cocoa powder, spooned and leveled
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup (3oz) milk chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup (113g) unsalted butter
- 3/4 cup (150g) granulated sugar
- 1 large egg, room temperature
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Topping
- 1 cup (6oz) dark chocolate chips
- 1/3 cup (78mL) heavy whipping cream
Method
Brownies
- Preheat the oven to 350F/177C convection (325F/163C conventional) and grease and line an 8 inch square pan.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder and salt.3/4 cup (90g) all-purpose flour spooned and leveled, 1/4 cup (20g) dutch-process cocoa powder spooned and leveled, 1/4 tsp salt
- In a large bowl, microwave (or in a saucepan on the stove) together the milk chocolate and the butter and mix until they’re combined.1/2 cup (3oz) milk chocolate chips, 1/2 cup (113g) unsalted butter
- Add in the granulated sugar and whisk until it’s smooth, followed by the egg and vanilla. Mix just until they’re fully combined and smooth.3/4 cup (150g) granulated sugar, 1 large egg room temperature, 1 tsp vanilla extract
- Fold the dry ingredients into the batter, just until the last streak of flour is combined.
- Bake at 350F/177C convection (325F/162C conventional) for 18-20 minutes. To check if they are done, press on it gently. There should be a little resistance and not feel liquidy. Allow the brownies to cool to room temperature.
Topping
- Place the chocolate chips in a medium size bowl and set aside. Place the cream in a small saucepan, over medium-low heat, and bring to a gentle simmer.1 cup (6oz) dark chocolate chips, 1/3 cup (78mL) heavy whipping cream
- Swirl the pan to make sure it is heating evenly. You want the edge of the cream to be bubbling, not the whole cream boiling.
- Pour the cream over the chocolate chips and cover with a lid for 2-3 minutes. Then slowly stir the chocolate and cream until they’re smooth and combined.
- Spread on top of the cooled brownies and top with rainbow chocolate sprinkles.
- Allow the ganache to set before slicing. I like to freeze it for an hour or refrigerate for 2-3 hours.
