Ingredients
- ¾ cup unsalted butter melted
- 1 ¼ cups granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ⅔ cup mashed ripe banana approximately 2 bananas
- ¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder I used Hershey's Special Dark
- ¾ cup all-purpose flour or gluten-free flour, if you're wanting a gluten-free option
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- 1 cup dark chocolate chips or semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 F and line an 8x8-inch square pan with parchment paper. Spray parchment lightly with nonstick cooking spray.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the butter, sugar, eggs, vanilla extract, and mashed banana.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the cocoa powder, flour, salt, and baking powder.
- Add the flour mixture in with the wet ingredients, then gently fold them together until just combined.
- Add the chocolate chips and fold the batter again.
- Transfer the mixture to your prepared pan and bake for 30-40 minutes or until a skewer poked into the center of the brownies comes out with no wet batter (a few moist crumbs are okay).
- Leave the brownies in the pan for about 15 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Slice into 12 bars and serve.
