Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C) and line an 8x8-inch pan with parchment paper, spritzing with nonstick spray.
  2. Melt the unsalted butter and granulated sugar in a microwave-safe bowl for about 1 minute until combined, stirring until smooth.
  3. Add the cold eggs and yolk to the mixture, whisking vigorously for about 1 minute until slightly thickened.
  4. Stir in the vanilla extract and neutral oil, then sift in the cocoa powder and fold until smooth.
  5. Gently fold in the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, and fine sea salt until just combined.
  6. Fold in the semisweet chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
