Preparation

1. Preheat the Oven

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). This ensures that the cake will bake evenly.

2. Prepare the Baking Pan

Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper to prevent sticking.

Mixing Ingredients

3. Combine Dry Ingredients

In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, sugar, and salt until well mixed.

4. Add Wet Ingredients

In another bowl, beat the eggs, then add the milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract. Mix until combined.

5. Combine Mixtures

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

6. Fold in Chocolate Chips and Nuts

Gently fold in the chocolate chips and chopped nuts if using, ensuring they are evenly distributed.

Baking

7. Bake the Cake

Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

8. Cool the Cake

Once baked, remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.

Serving

9. Slice and Serve

Once cooled, slice the cake into squares and serve. Enjoy your delicious creation!
