Ingredients
  

Cake Ingredients
  • 2 large eggs Make sure they are at room temperature
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1/3 cup neutral oil
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour Can substitute with whole wheat or gluten-free flour
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder Reduce for less intense chocolate flavor
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/3 cup milk
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract Can sub with almond extract for variation
  • 3 tbsp chocolate chips (white and dark mix) Plus extra for topping

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Heat your oven to 170°C (340°F). Line an 8-inch loaf pan with parchment paper.
  2. Whisk the eggs and sugar until they turn pale and foamy.
  3. Add the oil and whisk for about 30 seconds.
  4. Sift in the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and baking soda. Fold gently.
  5. Pour in the milk and vanilla. Mix until the batter is smooth.
  6. Stir in the chocolate chips.
  7. Transfer the batter to the loaf pan and tap it once to release bubbles.
  8. Sprinkle more chocolate chips on top.
Baking
  1. Bake for 30 to 40 minutes. If it browns too quickly, place a piece of foil over the top.
  2. Let it cool before slicing.

Notes

Serve slices plain or with vanilla ice cream. Drizzle with chocolate sauce or sprinkle with powdered sugar for a sweet finish. Pairs well with coffee or tea.
