Instructions
-
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Grease a 9-inch square baking pan to prevent sticking.

In a large bowl, stir together the butter, margarine, sugar, and vanilla extract until well combined and creamy.

Add the eggs to the mixture one at a time, beating well with a spoon after each addition.
-
In a separate bowl, combine the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, beating until smooth and thoroughly blended.
-
If desired, stir in chopped nuts for an extra crunch and flavor.
-
Spread the batter evenly into the prepared baking pan.
-
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges of the brownies start to pull away from the sides of the pan and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs.
-
Allow the brownies to cool in the pan on a wire rack.
-
Once cooled, you can frost the brownies with your favorite frosting if desired, or enjoy them as is for a simple yet satisfying treat.
-
Slice into squares and serve.
