Ingredients

  • 1 cup unsalted butter
  • 2 cups granulated sugar
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup chocolate chips (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line a baking pan with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Remove from heat and stir in the sugar until well combined.
  3. Add the eggs to the butter mixture one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
