Dessert Preparation

  1. 1

    Prep the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.

  2. 2

    Combine Dry Ingredients

    In a large bowl, sift together the flour, granulated sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.

  3. 3

    Mix Wet Ingredients

    In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract until well combined.

  4. 4

    Combine Mixtures

    Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix just until combined. Do not overmix.

  5. 5

    Bake

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

  6. 6

    Prepare Whipped Cream

    In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream with powdered sugar until soft peaks form.

  7. 7

    Serve

    Let the dessert cool before slicing. Serve with a dollop of whipped cream on top.
