Hershey's Brownies

1 cup butter or margarine (butter is better!)
2 cups sugar
2 t. vanilla
4 eggs
3/4 cup cocoa (I tried this using Hershey's dark cocoa-yum!)
1 cup flour
1/2 t. baking powder
1/4 t. salt

Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees. Grease 13x9x2 pan.

Melt the butter. Stir in sugar and vanilla. Add eggs one at a time, beating well with a spoon after each addition. Add cocoa. Beat until well blended. Add flour, baking powder and salt. Beat well. Pour batter in pan. Sprinke with chocolate chips, if desired.

Bake 30-35 minutes or until brownies begin to pull away from sides of pan. Cool completely in pan on wire rack. Cut into bars.
