   To prepare the brownies, melt 6 tablespoons butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Stir in cocoa and milk; cook 1 minute, stirring constantly. Add brown sugar, granulated sugar, and vanilla; cook mixture 1 minute, stirring constantly. (Mixture will be granular.) Remove mixture from heat; cool 5 minutes. Add egg whites, 1 at a time, stirring well after each addition. Lightly spoon flour into a dry measuring cup, and level with a knife. Combine the flour, baking powder, and salt, stirring well with a whisk. Add the flour mixture to the cocoa mixture, stirring until well-blended.
