Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup brown sugar
- 3 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 0.75 cup all-purpose flour
- 0.25 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1 box of confetti cake mix
- 0.5 cup vegetable oil
- 0.75 cup water
- 2 large eggs
- 0.25 cup rainbow sprinkles
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 9x13-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving a slight overhang for easy removal, and lightly grease it with cooking spray.
In a medium saucepan over low heat, melt the unsalted butter and semi-sweet chocolate chips together, stirring constantly until smooth and combined. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, brown sugar, and the melted chocolate mixture until well combined.
Add the eggs, one at a time, to the sugar and chocolate mixture, whisking well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
Sift the all-purpose flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, and salt together. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined. Do not overmix.
Pour the brownie batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly to form the first layer. Set aside.
In a separate bowl, prepare the confetti cake layer by mixing the confetti cake mix, vegetable oil, water, and eggs according to the box instructions.
Gently pour the confetti cake batter over the brownie layer, using a spatula to spread it evenly.
Sprinkle the rainbow sprinkles evenly over the top for an extra festive touch.
Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out mostly clean with a few moist crumbs.
Remove the pan from the oven and allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.
Once cooled, use the parchment paper overhangs to lift the brownies out of the pan. Cut into squares, serve, and enjoy your Double Decker Confetti Brownies!
