Decadent Oven-Baked Chocolate Chip Brownies

Ingredients

- 1 package chocolate chip studded dry brownie mix (approximately 18.3 ounces)
- 1/4 cup water
- 1/3 cup vegetable oil
- 1 large egg

Instructions

1. Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). This temperature ensures that the brownies cook evenly and develop a perfect crust.

2. Prepare the Baking Pan
Lightly grease an 8x8 inch baking pan with vegetable oil or line it with parchment paper for easy removal of the baked brownies.

3. Mix the Ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, combine the dry brownie mix, 1/4 cup of water, 1/3 cup vegetable oil, and 1 large egg. Stir the mixture together using a wooden spoon or rubber spatula until all ingredients are well incorporated and the batter is smooth. Be careful not to overmix to maintain a tender texture.

4. Pour and Spread the Batter
Pour the brownie batter into the prepared baking pan. Use a spatula to spread the batter evenly, ensuring it reaches all corners for even baking.

5. Bake the Brownies
Place the baking pan in the preheated oven and bake for 25 to 30 minutes. The brownie is done when the edges begin to pull away from the pan, and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs (not wet batter).

6. Cool and Serve
Remove the brownies from the oven and let them cool completely in the pan on a wire rack. Once cooled, cut into squares and serve as a delightful dessert treat.
