Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

Grease a baking pan with butter or line it with parchment paper.

Melt the unsweetened chocolate and butter together in a heatproof bowl over simmering water, stirring until smooth.

Remove from heat and whisk in granulated sugar and brown sugar until well combined.

Add eggs one at a time, whisking well after each addition, then stir in vanilla extract.

Sift together flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, cinnamon, cayenne pepper, and salt in a separate bowl.

Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the chocolate mixture until just combined.

Stir in chocolate chips and pecans until evenly distributed.

Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and smooth the top.

Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out with a few moist crumbs.

Allow to cool in the pan before cutting into squares.
