Instructions

In a large frying pan over medium heat, melt the butter, stirring occasionally until it bubbles and foams. Add the milk powder just before it begins to brown, stirring until the butter turns amber.
Stir in the sifted cocoa powder and heat for an additional 30 seconds. Transfer the butter mixture to a bowl and cool it in the freezer for 15 minutes.
Preheat the oven to 350°F. Prepare a 9×9 inch square pan by spraying with nonstick spray and lining with parchment paper, then spray again.
In a separate bowl, combine the flour, cornstarch, and salt, then set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the sugars, eggs, and egg yolk. Beat on high speed for 3 minutes.
Gently mix in the cooled butter, oil, and vanilla using a rubber spatula. Gradually fold in the dry mixture until just combined, and then add the chocolate chips.
Pour the brownie batter into the prepared pan and bake for 34-36 minutes, until the edges are set and the center remains slightly underdone.
Cool the brownies in the pan on a wire rack before cutting them into 16 squares.

Notes

Ensure the butter doesn’t burn while browning; watch it closely.
The brownies will continue to set up after baking, so avoid overbaking.
For added richness, consider using a mix of dark and semi-sweet chocolate chips.
