Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup unsalted butter (melted)
  • 2 cups granulated sugar (or brown sugar)
  • 4 large eggs (room temperature)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour (or gluten-free flour)
  • ¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • a pinch salt
  • 1 cup chocolate chips (optional) semi-sweet or dark
  • ½ cup chopped nuts (optional) walnuts or pecans

Equipment

  • Baking pan (9x13-inch)

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking pan, lining with parchment paper if desired.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk melted butter and sugar until combined. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in vanilla extract.
