Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

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

Melt the unsalted butter in a medium saucepan over low heat.

Remove from heat and stir in the granulated sugar and brown sugar until combined.

Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition, followed by the vanilla extract.

In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, dark cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined.

Fold in the walnuts and chocolate chips gently until evenly distributed.

Pour the brownie batter into the prepared baking pan and spread evenly.

Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.

Remove from the oven and let cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

Cut into squares and serve warm or at room temperature.
