Ingredients

For the brownies

  • 1 1/2 cups butter
  • 2 cups granulated sugar
  • 2/3 cup brown sugar
  • 1 3/4 cups cocoa powdered
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla
  • 5 eggs
  • 2 tablespoons corn syrup
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/3 cups flour

For the topping

  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 3 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips or chopped chocolate
  • Rainbow sprinkles

Instructions

  • Preheat of to 350 degrees. Line a 9x13 baking pan with parchment paper. Spray with non-stick cooking spray.
  • In a large, microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter. Stir in both sugars and the cocoa powder until well-combined. Stir in the vanilla.
  • Quickly whisk in the eggs, one at a time. Stir in the corn syrup, corn starch and salt and mix well. Gradually stir in the flour until combined. The batter will be thick.
  • Spread batter evenly in the prepared pan. Bake for 25-30 minutes until the center is set. Cool completely in the pan.
  • Meanwhile, make the ganache topping. Heat the cream in a large saucepan over medium-low heat until bubbles start to form around the edges. Do not let cream boil.
  • Remove from heat and add chocolate chips. Let stand for 1-2 minutes, then whisk until the mixture is shiny and smooth. Pour over the cooled brownies and smooth evenly. Sprinkle with rainbow chips.
  • Refrigerate brownies for 1-2 hours, or until frosting is set, before cutting into bars. Store in an airtight container for up to 1 week in the refrigerator.
