Now I have to admit.. I have never made brownies from scratch before! This was a treat that was easy to make, and well, well worth it!

Before you get started- read ALL the directions, and grab ALL the ingredients! Before you start mixing everything together! 

Step 1. Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease 15x10x1 (or 9x13x1) pan. Melt Butter completely in microwave safe bowl for 1 1/2-2 minutes.

 Step 2. Stir in Cocoa powder and Sugar until combined. Add Eggs and Vanilla. Using a wooden spoon, beat lightly just until combined. 

Step 3. In a small bowl combine Flour, Baking Soda, and Baking Powder. Alternately add flour mixture and milk to chocolate mixture, beating after each addition. (As you can see 2 pictures above. I mixed the flour mixture with the milk, and then mixed that with the chocolate mixture. Also, I clearly did not use a wooden spoon like they call for, a whisk worked just fine.) Stir in Chocolate Chunks.

Step 4. Pour batter into prepared baking dish. Since I did mine in a 9x13x1 it took about 30 mins to bake. However, the recipe says it should only take 15-18 mins @ 350 degrees F. if you use a 15x10x1.

Step 5. Enjoy! I enjoyed mine hot out of the oven with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top.
