In a large bowl, whisk together the cocoa powder, espresso powder, and boiling water until smooth.
Add the finely chopped unsweetened chocolate and whisk until melted and combined.
Stir in the melted butter and vegetable oil.
Whisk in the eggs, egg yolks, and vanilla extract until smooth and uniform.
Gradually mix in the sugar until fully incorporated.
Add the flour and salt. Fold gently with a rubber spatula until just combined.
3. Assemble the Brownies
Spread half of the brownie batter evenly into the prepared pan, smoothing it into the corners.
Sprinkle ¾ of the chopped Snickers over the batter.
Top with the remaining brownie batter, spreading evenly to cover the Snickers layer.
Sprinkle the remaining Snickers pieces over the top.
4. Bake the Brownies
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
Transfer the pan to a wire rack and let the brownies cool for 1½ hours.
5. Cool and Serve
Using the parchment overhang, carefully lift the brownies from the pan.
Place them on a wire rack and allow them to cool completely for about 1 hour.
Cut into 2-inch squares and serve.
Tips for Perfect Snickers Brownies
Dutch-Processed Cocoa: For a deeper chocolate flavor, stick to Dutch-processed cocoa.
Espresso Powder: Enhances the chocolate flavor but doesn’t make the brownies taste like coffee.
Snickers Placement: Distribute Snickers chunks evenly to get gooey bits in every bite.
Storage: Store brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or freeze for longer storage.
