Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×9 inch baking pan.
For the shortbread crust, combine sweetened condensed milk, butter, brown sugar, corn syrup, vanilla extract, and salt in a saucepan over medium heat until smooth. Mix with flour and powdered sugar to form dough, and press into the prepared pan.
Bake shortbread for 15 minutes until golden; let cool slightly.
Prepare brownie layer by creaming butter and sugar together, then adding eggs one at a time. Mix dry ingredients separately and combine them gently with wet ingredients until just mixed.
Pour the brownie batter over the cooled shortbread layer and bake for 25-30 minutes until edges are set.
For ganache topping, heat cream and pour it over chocolate chips; stir until smooth. Spread on cooled brownies and garnish with flaky sea salt.
