Step-by-Step Instructions for Heart Shaped Brownies
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line an 8-inch square baking pan with parchment paper.
  2. Melt the unsalted butter in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals until smooth.
  3. Stir in the granulated sugar, large eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth and glossy.
  4. Add the cocoa powder, flour, salt, and baking powder; fold gently until just combined.
  5. Fold in the chocolate chips until evenly distributed in the batter.
  6. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 20-25 minutes until a toothpick inserted comes out with moist crumbs.
  7. Allow the brownies to cool in the pan before lifting them out to cut into heart shapes.
  8. Plate your heart shaped brownies and enjoy or add toppings like powdered sugar or chocolate drizzle.
