Cosmic Brownies are a fudge brownie topped with a chocolate ganache and rainbow sprinkles. Similar to the classic Little Debbie cosmic brownies we grew up eating. These easy fudge brownies will win over a crowd.
Start by preheating your oven to 350 degrees Farenheit. Then place parchment paper in your 9x13 pan on bottom and sides then spray cooking spray to prevent sticking.
In a stand mixer or bowl whip up your granulated sugar, brown sugar, whole eggs and yolks, vanilla, and salt. Mix until creamy.
Now in a double boiler or microwave melt your butter ahd chocolate together for the fudge brownies. Once it is melted whisk in your vegetable oil.
Pour the chocolate mixture into your sugar mixture and mix until it begins to combine. Slowly stir in all purpose flour and cocoa powder.
Pour your easy fudge brownies into your baking pan, and cook for 25-35 minutes or until done. Stick a toothpick in your brownies to see if the toothpick comes out clean.
While your brownies are cooking you can work on your chocolate ganache glaze. Grate your chocolate into a heatproof bowl and set aside.
Now you will add sweetened condensed milk and butter in another bowl and heat up in the microwave or a double boiler. You want it to melt. Stir frequently. I did every 30 seconds in the microwave stirring in between.
When the butter is melted add in your chocolate chips, and stir until they are all melted.
Once your brownies are done, pour over the ganache, and your rainbow chip sprinkles.
Let your brownies cool completely before you try to remove and slice.
Notes
Brownies - These are a fudge brownie, not cake-like. Frosting - Make sure to mix up the chocolate ganache well before you pour over the brownies. It will give it that shiny smooth look. Where To Buy Candy Sprinkles - I found my sprinkles online at Amazon. You can also look in the baking aisle at the grocery store. Freezer Friendly - These brownies can be frozen for up to 3 months. Then thaw on the counter or place in the fridge to thaw overnight.
