Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat And Prep
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

- While the cake is baking, melt chocolate chips with sweetened condensed milk in a saucepan over low heat, stirring until smooth.
- Remove from heat and stir in vanilla extract.
- Step 5: Finish And Serve

- Let it sit for 5 minutes, then serve warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
