Instructions
00:00 Introduction
Prepare a 13×9 pan by lightly greasing and flouring, or line with parchment paper. Preheat oven to 350F.
00:07 Place butter in a large, microwave-safe bowl, and microwave until completely melted.
01:03 Stir in cocoa powder.
01:32 Add sugars, and stir well.
02:04 Add eggs, one at a time, stirring well after each addition.
03:04 Stir in vanilla extract. Set aside.
03:29 In a separate, medium-sized bowl, whisk together flour, cornstarch (cornflour for UK), and salt.
04:03 Gradually stir dry ingredients into wet until completely combined.
04:25 Evenly spread into prepared pan and bake on 350F (177C) and bake for 16-18 minutes. Allow to cool completely before frosting.
Frosting
05:52 Combine chocolate chips and heavy cream in a medium-sized saucepan over medium-low heat. Stir well until chocolate is completely melted and mixture is smooth.
08:06 Remove from heat and stir in vanilla extract and salt. Allow to cool 5-10 minutes before proceeding.
08:36 Evenly pour frosting over brownies, using a spatula to spread evenly.
09:23 Immediately sprinkle candy chips over top. Allow frosting to harden (about 1 hour) before cutting and eating (this can be sped up if you place the brownies in the refrigerator for about 15 minutes).
