Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F/180°C. Line an 8X8" or 9X9" square baking pan with parchment paper and set aside.
  • Melt the chocolate in a heatproof bowl in the microwave for about 2 minutes, mixing every 15 seconds until completely melted.
    180 grams chopped chocolate
  • Whisk in the oil, bourbon, and vanilla extract. The mixture may solidify a bit. Let cool slightly.
    108 grams neutral oil, 60 grams bourbon , 2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • In a separate large mixing bowl, beat the granulated sugar, brown sugar, eggs, and egg white with a handheld mixer on medium-high speed for 2-4 minutes until pale and frothy.
    200 grams granulated sugar, 55 grams brown sugar, 3 large eggs, 1 egg white
  • While beating, stream in the melted chocolate mixture. Beat until well combined.
  • Fold the all purpose flour, cocoa powder, and salt into the wet ingredients with a rubber spatula until the dry streaks of flour nearly disappear.
    94 grams all purpose flour, 43 grams cocoa powder, ½ teaspoon salt
  • Fold the chocolate chips into the batter.
    85 grams chocolate chips
  • Pour the brownie batter into your prepared baking pan. Bake for 26-32 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with moist crumbs but no wet batter.
  • Remove the brownies from the oven. Let them cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire cooling rack. Cool completely, slice, and enjoy!

Notes

Use room temperature eggs and egg white.
Measure the flour correctly in grams or by using the spoon and level method.
Don't overmix. Mix just until the dry ingredients blend into the batter.
Storage: Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days. Reheat in the microwave for 10 seconds for warm brownies.
Freezing: Cut the brownies into slices and put sheets of parchment or wax paper between each slice. Transfer to a sealed container and freeze for up to 3 months. Let thaw on the counter for 3-4 hours before eating.
