    var power = function (base, exponent){
        if (exponent === 0){
            return 1;
        }
        else () {
            return base * power(base, exponent-1);
        }
    };

Remove the parenthesis after the else:

var power = function (base, exponent){
    if (exponent === 0){
        return 1;
    }
    else {  // <--- extra parenthesis here
        return base * power(base, exponent-1);
    }
};
