Ingredients

  • 1 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 cups granulated sugar
  • 4 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 cup colorful candy-coated chocolates
  • 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 9×13-inch baking pan with parchment paper.
  2. Whisk together the melted butter and granulated sugar until smooth.
  3. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.

  5. Fold in the chocolate chips if using.
  6. Spread the batter evenly into the prepared baking pan.
  7. Sprinkle the colorful candy-coated chocolates evenly over the top, gently pressing some into the batter.
  8. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the edges are set and a toothpick inserted near the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
  9. Allow the brownies to cool completely before slicing into squares and serving.
