Preparation

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350°F. Lightly grease a 9-by-13-inch baking pan and line it with parchment paper, leaving an inch of overhang on both sides.

2. In a large bowl, whisk the oil with the butter, sugar, brown sugar, eggs and vanilla extract to combine.

3. Sift the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder and salt into the oil mixture. Stir to combine. Pour the batter into the prepared pan.

4. Bake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 18 to 20 minutes. Cool completely.

5. When the brownies are cool, use the parchment overhang to pull the brownies out of the pan. Cut the brownies into 15 even pieces. Slip an ice-pop stick into the side of each brownie and then place on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Transfer the baking sheet to the refrigerator and let the brownies chill for 15 to 20 minutes.

6. Dip each brownie into the melted chocolate and then put it back on the baking sheet.Garnish with sprinkles or white chocolate as desired. Refrigerate for 5 to 10 minutes until the chocolate sets. Keep chilled until ready to serve.
