4. In a large bowl whisk together the melted butter, sugar, eggs, and vanilla until there are no chunks of sugar left.

6. Fold in the chocolate chips.
7. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and drop some chocolate chips on the top of the load before going into the oven (optional). Bake for 45 - 55 minutes, until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
