Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a medium saucepan, melt 0.75 cup of unsalted butter over low heat. Remove from heat and stir in 1.5 cups of granulated sugar and 0.5 cup of brown sugar until well combined.
Beat in 3 large eggs, one at a time, and add 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract. Stir until the mixture is smooth.
In a large bowl, sift together 1 cup of all-purpose flour, 0.75 cup of unsweetened cocoa powder, 0.5 teaspoon of salt, and 0.5 teaspoon of baking powder.
Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined. Do not overmix.
Fold in 1 cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips.
Pour the batter into a greased and parchment-lined 9x9-inch baking pan, spreading evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the edges are set and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
Allow the brownies to cool in the pan on a wire rack before cutting into squares.
To assemble the brownie sundae, place a brownie square on a serving plate.
Top the brownie with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
Drizzle warm chocolate fudge sauce over the ice cream.
Add a generous swirl of whipped cream over the top.
Garnish with a maraschino cherry and serve immediately.
