Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 deg.

First stir together the flour, baking powder, salt, 3 T. of the cocoa, and 3/4 C. of the white sugar. Reserve remaining cocoa and sugar. Stir in the milk, melted butter, and vanilla to the flour mixture. Mix until smooth. Pour the mixture into an ungreased 8-inch baking dish.
