Step 2- Melt the Butter: In a large microwave-safe bowl, add the butter. Microwave for about 1 minute, or until the butter is melted. Whisk in the sugars then let cool to just warm. Whisk in the eggs, egg yolk, and vanilla. Whisk vigorously for 30 seconds. Whisk in the oil and cocoa powder.

Step 3- Combine Dry Ingredients: Using a rubber spatula, stir in the flour, cornstarch, and salt until combined. Stir in the chocolate chips and toffee bits, reserving a handful of each.

Step 4- Spread and Bake: Spread the brownie batter evenly into the prepared pan. Sprinkle with extra toffee bits and chocolate chips. Place in the oven and bake for 30 minutes, or until the brownies are set and a cake tester inserted into the center has moist crumbs attached. If you prefer a less fudgy brownie, bake an additional 5-7 minutes, or until cake tester inserted into the center has only melted chocolate attached. Let cool completely before cutting and serving.

Cooking techniques
Microwaving butter is a quick and easy method to melt it without burning. Mixing vigorously helps incorporate air, which can give the brownies a lovely texture.

Try using dark chocolate chips instead of semisweet for a richer flavor. You can also add nuts for an extra crunch!
Storage tips
Keep the brownies in an airtight container, and for longer freshness, refrigerate them. You can also freeze them for up to 3 months!
Notes
These brownies are best enjoyed fresh but can easily be reheated in the microwave for a warm treat!
