Chocolate Chip Cake
Posted by alimonkey
This has become a favorite with my family. The chocolate chips make it really rich so I think either chocolate whipped cream or chocolate meringue buttercream would be best for frosting. Also good with a thin layer of regular chocolate BC and fondant. Tastes just like chocolate chip cookies...Chocolate Chip Cake
Ingredients
- 4 eggs, separated 1/2 lb butter, softened 1 c white sugar 1 c brown sugar 1 t vanilla 2 1/2 c AP flour 2 t salt 1 c buttermilk 1 1/2 c chocolate chips* (tossed together with a little flour to coat.)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350
- Grease & flour 2 8 inch pans**
- Beat the egg white until stiff but not dry. Set aside.
- On medium speed, cream butter. Gradually add sugar and
- beat until light. Add vanilla & mix. Add yolks, one at
- a time, beating after each addition.
- In another bowl, combine dry ingredients.
- Add flour mixture to butter mixture alternately with
- buttermilk, beginning and ending with flour. Mix just
- until smooth. Fold in egg whites, then stir in
- chocolate chips.
- Pour into pans, bake 35-45 minutes.
- *I use the mini chocolate chips, they stay suspended
- in the batter better than the large, but you will have
- more chocolate in the cake, so you can cut back by 1/4
- to 1/2 cup if you like.
- **The recipe calls for 8" x 2" pans but you may also be able to use 9"
- - I usually have batter leftover for a skinny 6" cake
- for snacking.
