Ingredients:

  • 1 box (18.4 oz) Brownie Mix
  • 1/2 cup Unsalted Butter, melted
  • 2 large Eggs, room temperature
  • 1/4 cup All Purpose Flour
  • 1 tsp Pure Vanilla Extract
  • 1/2 cup Semi Sweet Chocolate Chips
  • 1/2 tsp Flaky Sea Salt

Instructions:

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Note: This ensures the leavening agents activate the moment the dough hits the heat.
  2. Melt the butter. Do this in 30 second bursts in the microwave until just liquid.
  3. Whisk eggs and vanilla. Combine these in your mixing bowl until the eggs are frothy and light.
  4. Incorporate melted butter. Stream it in slowly while whisking to create a stable emulsion.
  5. Add the brownie mix. Dump the entire box in and stir with your spatula until no dry streaks remain.
  6. Fold in the flour. Gently mix in the 1/4 cup of flour until the dough becomes thick and shiny.
  7. Add chocolate chips. Fold these in last so they stay distributed throughout the thick dough.
  8. Scoop the dough. Place 2 tablespoon mounds onto parchment lined sheets, leaving 2 inches of space.
  9. Bake for 10 minutes. Watch for the surface to shatter into a beautiful crinkle pattern.
  10. Cool on the pan. Let them rest for at least 5 minutes until they are firm enough to lift without breaking.
