My BEST Ever Chewy Brownies are just as chewy as boxed brownies but with better chocolate flavor. One bowl recipe, ready in less than 1 hour. I've made this recipe over 200 times (no joke!).
1/3 cup (74 grams) neutral oil ((like vegetable or avocado))
3/4 cup (75 grams) cocoa powder*
1/2 cup (63 grams) all-purpose flour, (measured correctly)
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
3/4 cup (128 grams) semisweet chocolate chips

Steps
Preheat the oven to 325°F. Line an 8 by 8-inch light-colored metal pan** with foil or parchment paper and spray with nonstick cooking spray.
In a microwave-safe bowl, add the butter and sugar. Microwave for about 1 minute, or until the butter is melted. Whisk in the eggs and egg yolk, whisking vigorously for 1 minute. Whisk in the vanilla, then stir in the oil and cocoa powder.
With a rubber spatula, stir in the flour, cornstarch, and salt until combined. Stir in the chocolate chips.
Spread the brownie batter evenly into the prepared pan. Place in the oven and bake for 30 minutes, or until the brownies are set and a cake tester inserted into the center has moist crumbs attached. Do not overcook. Let cool completely to solidify before cutting and serving.
Brownies can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. Brownies will be gooey when served warm, chewy when served at room temperature, and fudgy when served chilled.

Leroy Jenkins on 2025-12-22 (4 stars): Really good but a litttle bit overwhelmingly sweet.
Abi Ruddick on 2025-12-14 (5 stars): I can’t find corn starch any where. Is corn flour the same thing?
I’m really wanting to make these brownies for my family at Christmas.
Any advice will be great.
Thank to j

nicole on 2025-12-02 (5 stars): Made these with a whipped caramel topping and they might be the best brownies i’ve ever made. Baked in a 9x13 pan for 35 min as suggested and they came out amazing!
Ava on 2025-11-30 (3 stars): i didn’t love these.. tasted the oil too much but maybe that’s because i used the wrong oil? idk hahah
Chi on 2025-11-28 (5 stars): I had high hopes for this recipe. Not sure what happened as I followed the ingredients and method step by step. The brownies came out extremely fudgey Not chewy at all.
