- Brownie Layer:
- ½ cup unsalted butter melted
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- ⅓ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- ½ cup all-purpose flour
- ¼ tsp salt
- ¼ tsp baking powder
- Cream Layer:
- ¼ cup unsalted butter softened
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 2 tbsp milk
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
- Chocolate Ganache Layer:
- ½ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 2 tbsp unsalted butter
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8x8-inch baking pan.
In a bowl, mix melted butter, sugar, eggs, and vanilla until smooth.
Stir in cocoa powder, flour, salt, and baking powder until well combined.
Pour brownie batter into the prepared pan and bake for 25–30 minutes; let cool completely.
For the cream layer, beat butter, powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla until light and fluffy.
Spread the cream layer evenly over the cooled brownie base.
Melt chocolate chips and butter together until smooth, then pour over the cream layer.
Spread chocolate ganache evenly and chill brownies until set, about 1 hour.
Slice into squares and serve chilled or at room temperature.
- For a firmer cut, chill the brownies for at least 2 hours before slicing.
- Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
