Ingredients

• 1 cup Unsalted butter
• 1 cup Semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 1.5 cups Granulated sugar
• 0.5 cup Light brown sugar
• 4 Large eggs
• 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 1.25 cups All-purpose flour
• 0.5 cup Unsweetened cocoa powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 1 box Instant chocolate pudding mix
• 2 cups Whole milk

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 9x13-inch baking pan with parchment paper. Lightly grease the parchment paper.

Step 2

In a medium saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over low heat. Remove from heat and stir in the semi-sweet chocolate chips until smooth and glossy.

Step 3

Transfer the melted chocolate mixture to a mixing bowl. Add the granulated sugar and light brown sugar, stirring until fully combined.

Step 4

Whisk in the eggs one at a time, ensuring each is fully incorporated before adding the next. Stir in the vanilla extract.

Step 5

In a separate bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, and salt. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined.

Step 6

Prepare the instant chocolate pudding by whisking the pudding mix with the whole milk in a medium bowl for about 2 minutes until thickened.

Step 7

Pour half of the brownie batter into the prepared baking pan and spread evenly. Gently spoon the prepared pudding over the batter, spreading it evenly to form a layer.

Step 8

Carefully pour the remaining brownie batter over the pudding layer and spread it to cover the pudding completely.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the edges are set and a toothpick inserted into the brownie (not the pudding layer) comes out with a few moist crumbs.

Step 10

Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan before slicing into squares. Serve as-is or with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
