- 1 tablespoon mini chocolate chips
- ¼ teaspoon baking powder
Wet Ingredients
- ⅓ cup whole milk
Toppings
- Squirt whipped topping (as desired)

- Add chocolate chips and baking powder: Mix in the mini chocolate chips and baking powder, stirring again to evenly distribute all ingredients throughout the batter.
