Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Once melted, remove from heat and stir in the granulated sugar and cocoa powder until smooth and fully combined.
In a separate mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, and baking powder.
Add the eggs, one at a time, to the butter-sugar-cocoa mixture, stirring well after each addition. Then mix in the vanilla extract and Kahlua.
Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, being careful not to overmix. Stir in the semisweet chocolate chips and nuts, if using.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs (not wet batter).
Remove the brownies from the oven and let them cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before slicing.
Cut into squares and serve. Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or refrigerate for up to a week.
