Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 15×10-inch baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly spray with non-stick cooking spray.
- In a bowl, whisk together cocoa powder, flour, baking powder, and sugar until well combined.
- In another bowl, beat eggs until pale and fluffy. Gently fold in melted butter and vanilla extract.
