Ingredients
  

1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, melted

1 ½ cups granulated sugar

1 cup packed brown sugar

4 large eggs

2 teaspoons vanilla extract

1 ½ cups all-purpose flour

½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder

1 teaspoon baking powder

½ teaspoon salt

1 ½ cups semi-sweet chocolate chips

1 cup chopped walnuts or pecans (optional)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper and set them aside.

    Mix the Wet Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the melted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar. Whisk together until well combined. Add the eggs (one at a time) and vanilla extract, mixing until smooth and thoroughly incorporated.

      Combine the Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt until evenly mixed.

        Combine Wet and Dry Mixtures: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined. Avoid over-mixing to ensure the cookies remain chewy.

          Fold in Chocolate Chips and Nuts: Gently fold the semi-sweet chocolate chips and chopped walnuts or pecans (if using) into the cookie dough. The dough will be thick and fudgy.

            Scoop the Dough: Use a cookie scoop or two tablespoons to drop mounds of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches of space between each cookie to allow for spreading.

              Bake the Cookies: Place the baking sheets in the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes. The edges should be set, and the centers slightly soft. They will continue to firm up as they cool.

                Cool Down: Once baked, remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheets for about 5 minutes. Then, transfer them to wire racks to cool completely.

                  Serve and Enjoy: Enjoy your chewy brownie cookies warm or at room temperature. Pair them with a cold glass of milk or a scoop of ice cream for an indulgent treat!
