1cup(125g) plain/all-purpose flour

Instructions
Preheat the oven to 180C/350F/Gas 4. Line an 8x8-inch square baking pan with foil or parchment paper, and set aside.
Place the chocolate, oil, sugar, cocoa powder, and salt into a large microwave-safe bowl.
Heat in 30 second intervals, stirring after each one, until the chocolate is melted, everything is combined, and the mixture is very warm/hot to the touch.
Add the milk and vanilla, and mix until combined.
Fold in the flour until fully combined, then gently fold in the chocolate chips. Be sure not to let them ALL melt into the warm batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 30 - 35 minutes, or until the centre is no longer jiggly and a toothpick inserted comes out almost clean with a few moist crumbs.
Allow to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before cutting into squares.
