JANE DAVIS'S BROWNIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Lightly grease bottom and sides of an 8-inch square baking pan.
• Line with parchment paper, letting ends of paper extend above pan on 2 sides; lightly grease paper.
• Mix flour, baking powder and salt (I do it on a small piece of waxed paper so I have less dishes to wash).
• Melt butter in a medium saucepan over low heat.
• Remove from heat and add unsweetened chocolate; stir until chocolate melts completely.
• Stir sugar, vanilla and eggs into chocolate mixture (put it directly into the pan you used to melt chocolate).
• Add flour mixture and chocolate chips and stir until just blended.
• Spread evenly in prepared pan.
• Bake for 20 to 25 minutes until top is firm when lightly touched.
• Be sure not to overbake.
• Cool in pan on wire rack.
• When cool, lift out, holding paper ends, from pan to cutting board.
• The parchment paper should peel easily off before cutting.
