Spread Batter:

Cool and Serve:

👩🍳 Chef’s Tips:
- For extra richness, you can substitute melted butter for the shortening.
- Don’t overmix the batter once you’ve added the dry ingredients to ensure a tender texture.
- Experiment with different types of chips like white chocolate, peanut butter, or caramel for unique flavor combinations.
- Store leftover brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or freeze for longer storage.
