Step-by-Step Instructions

### Step 1: Heat-Treat the Flour

Microwave flour for 60–90 seconds, stirring every 30 seconds, until it reaches a safe temperature.

Tip: This step kills bacteria and makes your batter safe to eat.

### Step 2: Mix Dry Ingredients

In a bowl, combine flour, cocoa powder, brown sugar, granulated sugar, and salt.

### Step 3: Add Wet Ingredients

Pour in melted butter, milk, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth and creamy.

Tip: Adjust milk for desired consistency—less for thick batter, more for a softer texture.

Fold in chocolate chips or your favorite add-ins.

### Step 5: Serve & Enjoy

Eat immediately or chill for 10–15 minutes for a thicker, fudgier texture.
