Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a 9x9 inch baking pan by greasing it or lining with parchment paper.
  2. Mash 2-3 ripe bananas in a large mixing bowl until smooth, aiming for about 1 cup of mashed bananas.
  3. Add granulated sugar, brown sugar, and melted butter to the mashed bananas. Stir until well combined.
  4. Beat in the eggs one by one and mix in vanilla extract until fully incorporated.
  5. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
  6. Gradually fold the dry mixture into the wet ingredients until just combined.
  7. If using, fold in chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
  8. Pour the brownie batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
  9. Bake for 25 minutes, until edges are set but center looks slightly soft.
  10. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
