Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined.

Step 7

Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips and optional chopped walnuts until evenly distributed.

Step 8

Transfer the dough into a lightly greased 8-inch cast iron skillet or oven-safe dish, smoothing the top with a spatula.
