Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt

- 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8-inch square baking pan.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
- Add the egg, milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla to the dry mixture. Mix until smooth.
