Ingredients
  

Dry Ingredients
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
Wet Ingredients
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter melted
  • 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Optional Add-ins
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips

Equipment

  • 8x8-inch baking pan
  • medium bowl
  • large bowl
  • whisk
  • wire rack

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease and flour an 8x8-inch baking pan. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt, then set aside.
Mixing
  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the melted butter and granulated sugar until well combined. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
Combining
  1. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. If using, fold in the chocolate chips.
Baking
  1. Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread evenly. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs, not wet batter.
Cooling
  1. Let the brownies cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before cutting into squares and serving.

Notes

For extra fudginess, slightly underbake the brownies. Store leftover brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the refrigerator for up to a week.
