Chewy (made from scratch) Brownies

This is my go to brownie recipe! No more using box mixes after I tried these. With a few more ingredients they as almost as quick as the pre made mixes.

Ingredients

1 2/3 cup sugar
3/4 cup baking cocoa
1 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup melted butter (1 1/2 salted sticks)
2 large eggs
2 tablespoons water
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
Powdered sugar for sprinkling

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (325 if using a glass dish)
2. Grease a 9x13inch baking pan
3. Add all ingredients except chocolate chips into a mixing bowl
4. Using a rubber spatula mix ingredients together until well combined
NOTE: The batter will be thick and kind of grainy – this is ok
5. Add chocolate chips and mix in (sometimes I add a few extra)
6. Pour batter into the baking pan and spread into an even layer
NOTE: The brownies will not rise as they bake
7. Bake for 18 to 25 minutes (slightly longer for glass dish) or until a toothpick in the center comes out slightly sticky
8. Allow to cool completely in the pan before dusting with powdered sugar and serving
