1. Biscuit-Allow egg to stand at room temperature for 30 minutes. 2. Meanwhile, grease a 9 X 9 inch baking dish, preheat oven to 350 degrees. 3. Line the bottom of baking pan with parchment paper, grease and flour paper; set aside. 4. In a small bowl, stir together the flour, cocoa, baking powder, and salt. 5. In a medium bowl, beat egg with an electric mixer on high speed about 3 minutes or until thick and lemon colored. 6. Gradually add sugar, beating on medium speed for 4 minutes or until light and fluffy. 7. Add the flour mixture; beat on low to medium speed JUST until combined. 8. In a small saucepan, combine milk and butter; heat and stir until butter melts; add to batter along with vanilla, beating until combined. 9. Pour batter into prepared pan. 10.

Optional-Place bittersweet chocolate in a small microwave safe bowl, microwave, uncovered, on 50 percent power (medium) about 1 minute or until chocolate is melted and smooth, stirring every 15 seconds-set aside to COOL about 15 minutes.
