Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350℉ and line a 9×13-inch pan with parchment paper, leaving some paper hanging over the sides.
In a large bowl, whisk together the almost melted butter and both sugars. Add the beaten eggs, corn syrup, and vanilla extract, whisking until combined.
In another bowl, sift together the cocoa powder, flour, and salt. Gradually stir the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until fully combined.
Pour the brownie batter into the prepared pan, smoothing out the top. Bake in the preheated oven for 28 to 32 minutes, or until just set and fudgy.
Once baked, remove from the oven and allow to cool completely. Carefully lift the brownies out using the parchment paper and transfer to a cutting board.

Notes

For an extra fudgy texture, consider using light corn syrup.
Let the brownies cool completely before cutting to ensure clean slices.
Feel free to top with your favorite ganache or frosting for added sweetness.
