Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare for baking.

  2. 2

    Prepare the baking pan

    Grease a 9x13 inch baking pan with butter or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.

Mixing Dry Ingredients

  1. 3

    Combine dry ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, unsweetened cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt until they are well combined.

Mixing Wet Ingredients

  1. 4

    Melt the butter

    In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the unsalted butter. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.

  2. 5

    Mix wet ingredients

    In a separate bowl, whisk together the melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth.

Combining

  1. 6

    Combine wet and dry mixtures

    Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.

  2. 7

    Add optional ingredients

    If using, fold in the chocolate chips and chopped nuts until evenly distributed throughout the batter.

Baking

  1. 8

    Transfer to baking pan

    Pour the brownie batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it out evenly.

  2. 9

    Bake

    Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.

  3. 10

    Cool

    Remove from the oven and let the brownies cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
