  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined.
  6. Fold in chocolate chips if using.

Notes

You can serve these brownies warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, or dusted with powdered sugar. They are delicious on their own or topped with fresh berries or chocolate syrup for an elegant presentation.
