Meanwhile, start on the brownie.
Put the butter and chocolate chips in a microwave safe bowl.
Melt in the microwave froa round two minutes then take it out, stir and put back in for another two minutes.
Stir the light brown and white sugars, vanilla and salt into the melted chocolate.

Cool on a rack, gently removing the brownies from the pan.
