Preparation

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure it's hot and ready for baking.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Baking Pan

    Grease a 9x13 inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper to prevent the brownies from sticking.

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

Mixing Wet Ingredients

    Melt the Butter

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

  2. 5

    Mix Wet Ingredients

    In another large bowl, whisk together the melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth.

Combining Ingredients

  1. 6

    Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients

    Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined. Avoid overmixing.

    Add Optional Ingredients

    If desired, fold in chocolate chips and nuts into the brownie batter.

Baking

    Pour Batter into Pan

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

  2. 9

    Bake the Brownies

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

Cooling and Serving

  1. 10

    Cool the Brownies

    Remove the brownies from the oven and let them cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

  2. 11

    Cut and Serve

    Once cooled, cut the brownies into squares and serve. Enjoy your fudgy brownies!
