Ingredients
 1 cup (8oz/225g) butter (melted and cooled)
 2 tablespoons vegetable oil (coconut or canola)
 1 cup plus 2 tablespoons (6 1/4oz/177g) brown sugar
 1 cup plus 2 tablespoons (8 1/4oz/227g) white sugar
 4 large eggs , room temperature
 4 teaspoons vanilla extract
 1 cup (5oz/142g) all purpose flour
 1 cup (4oz/115g) unsweetened cocoa powder (good quality)
 1 teaspoon salt
 1 1/2 cups (9oz/255g) roughly chopped chocolate or large chocolate chips

Instructions
1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) then line a 7x11 inch baking tray with parchment
paper and set it aside. 
2. In a large bowl combine melted butter, oil, and both sugars.
3. Add the eggs, vanilla and salt then whisk for about one minute until evenly combined
and light in color.
4. Over the same bowl sift in the flour and cocoa powder. Gently fold the dry ingredients
into the wet ingredients until JUST combined (do NOT over mix). Fold in half of the
chocolate chunks.
5. Pour the batter into the prepared pan, then smooth the top. Generously top with the
remaining chocolate chunks.
6. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the center of the brownies no longer jiggles and is JUST
set to the touch.
7. Remove from the oven and allow to cool to room temperature before removing from the
baking tray and slicing into 16 brownies. Enjoy!
