Equipment
- 1 mixing bowls
- 1 electric mixer or whisk
- 1 9x13 inch baking dish
- 1 measuring cups and spoons
- 1 spatula
- 1 toothpick or cake tester
Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup milk
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup hot water Do not stir into the batter.
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease the 9x13 inch baking dish with butter or non-stick spray.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, granulated sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Mix well.
- Add the melted butter, eggs, vanilla extract, and milk to the dry ingredients. Beat with an electric mixer or whisk until the batter is smooth and well combined.
- Stir in the chocolate chips until evenly distributed in the batter.
- Pour the batter into the greased baking dish and spread it evenly using a spatula.
- Carefully pour the hot water over the batter. Do not stir. This will create a gooey layer at the bottom as it bakes.
- Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the edges are set but the center remains soft and gooey. A toothpick inserted should come out with moist crumbs.
- Allow the cake to cool for about 15 minutes before serving, then slice and enjoy.
- Serve with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for an extra special treat.
