Main Ingredients

1 cup unsalted butter Use European-style for richer flavor.
2 cups granulated sugar Can swap half for brown sugar for a caramel note.
4 large eggs Bring to room temperature for smoother mixing.
1 teaspoon vanilla extract Enhances flavor.
1 cup all-purpose flour Use 1:1 gluten-free blend for gluten-free version.
1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder Choose Dutch-processed for deeper chocolate flavor.
1/2 teaspoon baking powder Leavening agent.
1/4 teaspoon salt Enhances chocolate flavor.
1/2 cup Bailey's Irish Cream Can substitute with strong coffee or cream + vanilla for non-alcoholic.
Powdered sugar (for dusting) For presentation.

Preparation

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13 inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper.
In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Remove from heat and stir in the sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add this mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined.
Fold in the Bailey's Irish Cream until evenly incorporated.

Baking

Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly.
Bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
Let the brownies cool completely in the pan, then dust with powdered sugar, cut into squares, and enjoy!
