Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F). Line a baking tray with parchment paper. Transfer the brownie batter into a piping bag. Pipe long strips of batter, approximately 1.5 to 2 cm wide, onto the prepared baking tray. Ensure to leave enough space between the strips as they will spread slightly during baking. If desired, sprinkle a few extra chocolate chips on top of the piped strips.

Immediately after removing from the oven, use a bench scraper, offset spatula, or spoon to gently push the sides of each brownie strip inward. Straighten and neaten the edges to form uniform fry shapes. Allow the brownie fries to cool completely on the baking tray before attempting to lift them, as they will be fragile when warm.
