This Chocolate Chip Cake has made its appearance in my kitchen 5 times in the last month. Every single time I make it, the cake gets devoured before I am able to take a picture of it. This time, I made the cake with plenty of time to let it cool down enough to cut a couple of pieces to take a picture. So, if making it 5 times in a short amount of time is any indication as to how good this cake is, then, I don’t know what is.
You probably have everything in your kitchen already to make this cake. Don’t you love recipes like that? I sure do! It’s easy to mix together. The batter gets layered between cinnamon and sugar and chocolate chips. I would consider this a dessert cake, but I wouldn’t judge if you ate it for breakfast with a cup of coffee or milk!
- 3 cups flour
- 2¼ teaspoons baking powder
- 1½ teaspoons baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 cup sugar
- ½ cup brown sugar
- ¾ cup butter
- 3 eggs
- 1½ cups sour cream
- 2 teaspoons vanilla
- ½ cup sugar
- 2 teaspoons cinnamon
- 1½ cup chocolate chips
- Spray a 9×13 baking dish with non-stick spray and set aside
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- In a bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Set aside.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer or a large bowl, cream together 1 cup sugar, brown sugar and butter. Add eggs, sour cream and vanilla. Beat until fluffy. Slowly add the flour mixture and beat until the mixture is combined and light in color, about 2 minutes.
- In a small bowl, mix together ½ cup sugar and cinnamon.
- Spread half of the batter into the baking dish. Sprinkle with half of the cinnamon sugar mixture. Top with half of the chocolate chips. Repeat with the remaining batter. The mixture will be thick, so be care as you spread the batter over the chocolate chips. Top the batter with the remaining cinnamon sugar and chocolate chips.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the middle of the cake comes out clean.
