Fudgy Chocolate Banana Brownies: A Sweet and Decadent Treat

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper or lightly grease it to prevent sticking.

2. Prepare the Brownie Batter
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the melted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until smooth. Add the eggs and vanilla extract, then mix until well combined.

Sift in the cocoa powder, flour, salt, and baking powder, gently folding the ingredients until just combined. Stir in the chocolate chips for extra richness.

3. Bake the Brownies
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs. Avoid overbaking to keep them fudgy.

4. Add the Toppings
Once the brownies are slightly cooled, arrange banana slices on top and sprinkle with chocolate chips. Let them melt slightly for a gooey finish.

5. Serve and Enjoy
Slice into squares and serve warm or at room temperature. Pair these brownies with vanilla ice cream or a drizzle of caramel sauce for an extra indulgent treat.
