Step 1
Melt butter in a small saucepan over medium heat, swirling occasionally, ~6 minutes.
Step 2
Continue cooking until the foam subsides and solids turn golden brown and fragrant, ~2 minutes more.
Step 3
Pour into a bowl, scraping up all the browned bits. Let cool for 5 minutes.
Step 4
Preheat oven to 350°F. Line an 8x8-inch baking pan with parchment paper.
Step 5
Whisk cooled brown butter with brown sugar until combined, then beat in the egg and vanilla.
Step 6
In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and black pepper.
Step 7
Fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined. Fold in chocolate chips.
Step 8
Spread batter into the prepared pan, smoothing the top.
Step 9
Bake until golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center has just a few moist crumbs, 20–22 minutes.
Step 10
Cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then turn out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 11
Cut into 12 squares and serve.
