Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease or line an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the melted butter and sugar, whisking until smooth and well combined.
Beat in the eggs one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the cocoa powder, flour, salt, and baking powder.
Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined.
If using chocolate chips, fold them into the batter at this point.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly.
Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs (not wet batter).
Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before cutting them into squares.
Serve and enjoy the rich, fudgy goodness!

For even fudgier brownies, underbake slightly by removing them from the oven when the toothpick still has a few moist crumbs.
Feel free to add nuts like walnuts or pecans for extra texture and flavor.
Store brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days or refrigerate for longer freshness.
