Base Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure it's ready for baking.

  2. 2

    Prepare Baking Pan

    Grease a 9x13 inch baking pan with butter or cooking spray to prevent sticking.

Mixing Ingredients

  1. 3

    Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, cocoa powder, and salt until well combined.

  2. 4

    Cream Butter and Sugar

    In another bowl, beat the unsalted butter until creamy. Gradually add the sugar and continue to beat until light and fluffy.

  3. 5

    Add Eggs and Vanilla

    Add the eggs one at a time to the butter mixture, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.

  4. 6

    Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients

    Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, alternating with the milk, starting and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.

  5. 7

    Fold in Flavor Ingredients

    Gently fold in the chopped nuts and chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the batter.

Baking

  1. 8

    Pour Batter into Pan

    Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly.

  2. 9

    Bake

    Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

  3. 10

    Cool and Serve

    Once baked, remove from the oven and let cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. Cut into squares and serve.
