Brownies

So this is one way to get my heart-shaped food. You can cut these brownies into any shape you like, not just traditional squares. I like my brownies chewy, and this recipe reflects that. If you prefer cake-like brownies, this one may not be for you.

I'm sure I don't need to tell you the myriad ways you can eat brownies. There is just plain, of course, or with ice cream, or whipped cream, or.....Well you get the idea. I hope you enjoy these with your sweetie. Or all by yourself if you don't feel like sharing. I won't tell anyone! ; )

3/4 Cup Melted Butter
1 1/2 Cups Sugar
1 1/2 tsp Vanilla
3 Eggs
3/4 Cup All Purpose Flour
1/2 Cup Unsweetened Cocoa Powder
1/2 tsp Baking Powder
1/2 tsp Salt
1 Cup Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips

Preheat Oven to 350

Grease a 13 x 9 inch baking pan

Combine the butter, sugar, eggs, and vanilla in a mixer. Combine the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder and salt in a separate bowl. Add the flour mixture to the mixer and mix until combined. Stir in the chocolate chips.

Pour into the pan and bake for 20-22 minutes. Cool in the pan on a wire rack before cutting and serving.
