Chocolate Brownie Recipe

1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x9 inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper.

2. In a medium saucepan over low heat, melt the butter. Remove from heat and stir in granulated sugar and brown sugar until well combined.

3. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in vanilla extract.

4. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, salt, and baking powder.

5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. Do not overmix.

6. Fold in the chocolate chips.

7. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread it evenly.

8. Bake for 30–35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.

9. Allow brownies to cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares and serving.
