Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease or line a 9x9 inch baking pan.
  2. Mash the ripe bananas in a large mixing bowl until smooth, approximately 2-3 minutes.
  3. Combine granulated sugar, brown sugar, and melted butter into the banana mixture and mix well.
  4. Beat the eggs into the banana mixture one at a time, then add vanilla extract.
  5. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
  6. Fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture gently, being careful not to overmix.
  7. If using, fold chocolate chips or nuts into the batter.
  8. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
  9. Bake for about 25 minutes, until the edges are set and a toothpick comes out mostly clean.
  10. Let the brownies cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
