"These homemade Cosmic Brownies are dark, dense, and rich. The edges are just a bit chewy, with a moist and ultra-fudgy interior. Zero traces of cakiness!..."

3/4 cup unsalted butter (1 1/2 sticks), melted

2 large eggs

1 cup granulated sugar

2/3 cup light brown sugar, packed

•
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
•
3/4 cup unsweetened natural cocoa powder or dark cocoa powder (I used Hershey’s Special Dark)

1 1/2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
•
1/2 cup half-and-half or cream (I used half-and-half)
