Ingredients
 
 

  • 1/2 cup butter melted
  • 1 dark chocolate bar (85g)
  • 1/2 cup light brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup white sugar
  • 2 eggs room temperature
  • 1 tbsp vanilla
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/4 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup butterscotch chips
  • 1/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease an 8×8 pan. For easy removal of the brownies, place parchment paper on the bottom and 2 sides of the pan. Grease again and then set aside.
  • Melt the butter. Once it's hot, add in the dark chocolate bar. Allow it to melt and whisk together until it's one, smooth mixture. Allow to cool for 5 minutes on your counter.

  • Add in the brown sugar and white sugar. Then add in the eggs and vanilla. Whisk well. You want to add air into the batter in this step, so it's important to whisk for at least 2 minutes. The mixture will be slightly bubbly when it's ready to go to the next step.
    1/2 cup light brown sugar, 1/2 cup white sugar, 2 eggs, 1 tbsp vanilla
  • Toss in the flour, baking powder, salt, and cocoa powder. Fold in with a spatula until just combined.
    1/2 cup all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder, 1/4 tsp baking powder, 1/4 tsp salt
  • Add in the chocolate chips, mini chips, and butterscotch chips
    1/2 cup butterscotch chips, 1/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips, 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips
  • Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish, spread evenly, and top with a handful of chocolate and butterscotch chips.
  • Bake the brownies for 25-35 minutes. Mine took 35 minutes. The brownies are ready when a toothpick inserted comes out slightly fudgy. If the batter is wet, keep baking for an additional 5 minutes.
  • When ready, slightly open your oven door and allow the hot air to escape. If you just take them straight out of them oven, the brownies will drop. After 10 minutes, remove from the oven and allow to cool on your counter before slicing. You can speed up the cooling process by placing them in the fridge as well.
  • Enjoy!
