4. Add the vanilla extract and eggs to the mixture. Beat until smooth.
5. Gradually add the flour and mix until just combined. Fold in the walnuts.
6. Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and spread it evenly.
7. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
8. Remove from the oven and let the brownies cool in the baking dish for 30 minutes.
9. Lift the brownies out of the dish using the parchment paper and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
10. Cut into squares and serve.
