Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Unsalted butter
- 1.5 cups Granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup Brown sugar
- 3 whole Large eggs
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 0.75 cup Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking powder
- 1 cup Quick oats
- 1 cup Semisweet chocolate chips
- 0.25 cup Heavy cream
- 0.5 cup Powdered sugar
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper.
In a large microwave-safe bowl, melt the unsalted butter. Allow it to cool slightly before stirring in the granulated sugar and brown sugar until smooth.
Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, salt, and baking powder.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Fold in the quick oats to add texture and chewiness to the brownie batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs. Do not overbake.
While the brownies are cooling, prepare the glaze. In a small saucepan over low heat, combine the semisweet chocolate chips and heavy cream. Stir until the chocolate chips are fully melted and the glaze is smooth.
Remove from heat and whisk in the powdered sugar until the glaze is glossy and slightly thickened.
Spread the glaze evenly over the cooled brownies. Let the glaze set for at least 20 minutes before cutting into squares and serving.
Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
