1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp ground nutmeg

Instructions:

Preheat your oven to 350°F and grease a 9×13 inch baking dish with cooking spray.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves.
In a separate large bowl, beat the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy.
Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, alternating with the milk. Mix until just combined.
Stir in the dark chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly.
Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove from the oven and let cool for at least 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
