Ingredients

¾ cup Semisweet Chocolate Chips
½ cup Milk
1 cup All purpose flour
2 tablespoons Cocoa powder
1 teaspoon Baking powder
? teaspoon Baking soda
A pinch of Salt
½ cup Sugar
¾ cup Condensed milk
½ cup Butter or Oil
1 teaspoon Vanilla essence
2 cups Heavy Whipping Cream (liquid)
½ cup + 2 tablespoon extra Powdered Sugar
2 teaspoons Cornstarch
2½ teaspoons Agar-agar dissolved in 2.5 tablespoon water (or unflavored gelatin)
1 cup Heavy Whipping Cream
2 cups Semi Sweet Chocolate Chips
Chocolate Syrup
Sprinkles

Method

* Combine chocolate chips and milk in a microwavable bowl.

* Microwave for 40 seconds. Remove and whisk until smooth and melted.

* Combine all the dry and wet ingredients in a bowl. Whisk until well blended.

* Pour batter into a greased 8×8 pan.

* Bake for 35 minutes or until the toothpick comes out clean. Allow it to cool completely. I usually let my brownies cool for 2-3 hours at room temperature.

* Combine agar-agar and water in a bowl.

* Allow it to bloom in water for around 5 minutes.

* Add chocolate chips to a bowl. Set it aside.

* Meanwhile, heat 1 cup of heavy cream in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Bring it to a slight boil.

* Add bloomed agar-agar to cream and allow it simmer for about 5 minutes (on medium-low heat) until it is completely dissolved. This process will hydrate agar-agar, which will allow it to set well. After 5 minutes, take it off the flame. The cream will become slightly thick.

* Pour this mixture over chocolate chips and whisk until chocolate is completely melted. Set aside to cool to about room temperature. Keep stirring occasionally.

* The chocolate mix will become thick. Please do not add hot chocolate to whipped cream.

* Combine remaining 2 cups of heavy cream, powdered sugar, and cornstarch to a bowl. Beat until stiff peaks forms. Cornflour/cornstarch helps whipped cream to holds its shape. It acts as a stabilizing agent.

* Carefully stir in half of the whipped cream into the melted chocolate-agar-agar-mix.

* Fold it gently until fully incorporated. Do not whisk.

* Repeat the process with rest of the whipped cream and fold gently.

* Time to assemble. Before you start layering, make sure brownie is completely cooled.

* Generously top the brownie layer with chocolate mousse. Allow it to chill for 4-6 hours or overnight.

* After the rest time, cut into equal squares.

* Drizzle with chocolate and sprinkles. Cut a slice and enjoy.
