🍫 Double Chocolate Loaf Cake

A rich, moist chocolate loaf packed with chocolate chips. Perfect for breakfast, dessert, or an afternoon treat.

📝 Ingredients

  • 2 large eggs

  • ⅓ cup (100 g) sugar

  • ⅓ cup (80 ml) neutral oil (vegetable or canola)

  • ⅓ cup (80 ml) milk

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

  • 1 cup (125 g) all-purpose flour

  • ¼ cup (20 g) cocoa powder

  • 1 teaspoon baking powder

  • ½ teaspoon baking soda

  • 3 tablespoons chocolate chips (white or dark, or a mix)

  • Extra chocolate chips for topping

👩‍🍳 Instructions

1️⃣ Mix the Wet Ingredients

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk the eggs and sugar until slightly pale and well combined.

  2. Add the oil, milk, and vanilla extract. Stir until smooth.

2️⃣ Combine with Dry Ingredients

  1. Sift together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and baking soda.

  2. Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined. Avoid overmixing to keep the cake tender.

  3. Fold in 3 tablespoons of chocolate chips.

3️⃣ Prepare for Baking

  1. Preheat the oven to 175°C (350°F).

  2. Grease a standard loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.

  3. Pour the batter into the pan and smooth the top with a spatula.

  4. Sprinkle extra chocolate chips over the surface.

4️⃣ Bake

  1. Bake for 35–45 minutes.

  2. Test doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center; it should come out clean or with a few moist crumbs.

  3. Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

🍽 Serving Suggestions

  • Serve slightly warm so chocolate chips are melty

  • Pair with a cold glass of milk or a cup of coffee

  • Slice thick for an indulgent snack

🧁 Tips

✔️ Use high-quality cocoa powder for deeper flavor
