Chocolate Chip Chocolate Cake

This chcolate loaf cake is super yummy and you won’t get enough of it. It is made with chunks of real chcolate, if you are a chcolate lover, this is for you. Add butter to a mixing bowl along with a cup of sugar, using an electric mixer, cream the butter and sugar until they are well mixed. Crack in two eggs and add vanilla extract for flavouring and milk.

Beat the mixture with an electric mixer until smooth then sift in all-purpose flour, baking powder, cocoa powder to give it the chocolatey flavour and a pinch of salt to bring out the flavour. Using a spatula, fold everything together until nicely combined and there are no lumps in the batter.

Break about 300 grams of high-quality chocolate into chunks, you can also use milk chocolate or any of your favourite chocolate then add the chocolate chunks to the cake batter and fold it in to distribute it evenly in the batter. Pour the batter into a prepared loaf pan to about three-quarters full then drop a few chocolate chunks over the top just to make it super chocolatey when baked.

Bake in 350 degrees Fahrenheit preheated oven for 60 to 70 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the centre comes out clean. Let the cake cool completely before removing it from the pan then slice and serve.
