  • Add the flour, cornstarch, and baking powder and stir until it's blended,
  • Pour batter into prepared pan, smoothing the top lightly with an offset spatula.
  • Bake for 28-32 minutes until the top looks set and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or with just a few crumbs. Cool on a wire rack.
  • While brownies have cooled for at least a half-hour, make the ganache.
  • Add chocolate chips and cream to a medium, microwave-safe bowl, and microwave on high for one minute. Set aside.
  • Let stand a few minutes before whisking to combine. If there are any small lumps, you may microwave for 15 seconds and whisk until smooth. Repeat if needed.
