- Bake the crust for about 15 minutes until lightly golden and let cool.
- For the brownie layer, cream together room temperature butter and granulated sugar until fluffy. Add eggs one at a time while mixing well after each addition. Stir in vegetable oil and vanilla extract.
- In another bowl, whisk flour, cocoa powder, and salts together. Gradually add to the wet ingredients until just combined.
- Pour brownie batter over the cooled shortbread crust evenly and bake for an additional 25 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
- For the ganache topping, heat heavy whipping cream until simmering. Remove from heat and stir in dark chocolate chips until smooth. Pour over cooled brownies and allow to set before slicing.
