Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F
Lightly grease an 8x8 baking pan, then line with parchment paper
In a medium mixing bowl, add ½ cup butter (hot), and 1⅛ cup white sugar, and whisk well, about 1 minute.
Add 1 tbsp olive oil, 2 eggs (one egg at a time), and 2 tsp pure vanilla extract, mixing well after each addition. Continue mixing 1-2 minutes until the mixture starts to lighten in color.
In a small mixing bowl, mix together ½ cup all purpose white flour, ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder, and ¼ tsp salt.
Slowly fold dry ingredients into wet ingredients. Don't beat, just gently fold until all the dry mixture is incorporated.
Add ½ cup semi sweet chocolate chips to batter and slowly fold in, then pour into pan and gently pour ¼ cup chocolate syrup onto batter in ribbons.
Bake 20-25 minutes until the middle is set and no longer jiggles. A toothpick will not show doneness as fudgy brownies will be moist.
Remove from oven and allow to cool on a wire rack for 15 minutes before slicing into 16 squares.
Notes
Chocolate syrup is an easy addition but feel free to use your favourite melted chocolate, instead!
