Ingredients

• 2 cups granulated sugar
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 4 large eggs
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 0.75 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 0.5 teaspoon baking powder
• 0.25 teaspoon salt

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Remove from the heat and stir in the granulated sugar and vanilla extract until smooth.

Step 3

Add the eggs one at a time to the melted butter mixture, beating well after each addition until fully incorporated.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.

Step 5

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix the batter.

Step 6

Fold in the chocolate chips to add extra bursts of chocolate flavor in every bite.

Step 7

Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula.

Step 8

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

Step 9

Remove the brownies from the oven and let them cool in the pan for at least 15 minutes before slicing into squares.

Step 10

Enjoy Grandma's classic brownies with a glass of milk or scoop of vanilla ice cream!
