Ingredients

  • 2 egg whites
  • ½ cup sugar
  • ½ cup brown sugar
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ cup potato starch or tapioca starch
  • 3 tablespoons cocoa powder
  • ¼ teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 cup chocolate chips

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 325°F.
  • Line an 11- x 16-inch baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
  • In the bowl of an electric stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, pour in egg whites.
  • This can also be done with a hand mixer. Whisk egg whites on high until frothy, about 1 minute.
  • Stir in sugar, brown sugar, and vanilla. Stir to combine.
  • Add in starch, cocoa, baking soda, and salt. Stir to combine.
  • Add in oil and stir to combine.
  • Pour batter onto the parchment-lined baking sheet and spread as thinly as possible, almost all the way to the edges of the baking sheet.
  • Sprinkle chocolate chips evenly all over brownie batter and press down. The chips will stick up out of the batter.
  • Place brownie mixture in the oven and bake at 325°F for 15 minutes.
  • Remove from the oven and carefully cut the brittle into squares. Try not to drag a knife through brownies; instead, press the knife down and carefully lift up. Clean melted chocolate off the knife as you go.
  • Return to the oven for 5 more minutes to finish baking.
  • Remove from oven and allow to cool completely. Once cool, break the brownie into the pre-cut squares. The crispy edges should break evenly on the cuts you made earlier.
  • Store in an airtight container at room temperature. I don’t recommend freezing them because it softens once defrosted and doesn’t stay crispy
