For the Cake:
- 1 cup (225g) unsalted butter, softened
- 1 ½ cups (300g) granulated sugar
- 4 large eggs, room temperature
- 2 cups (250g) all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup (120ml) milk (whole or evaporated)
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 cup (175g) semi-sweet chocolate chips (tossed in 1 tablespoon flour to prevent sinking)
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat the oven to 175°C (350°F) and grease a 9×5-inch (23×13 cm) loaf pan, lining it with parchment paper.
- Cream Butter and Sugar: Cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add Eggs: Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
- Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Alternate Additions: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture alternately with the milk, starting and ending with the flour.
- Stir in Flavor: Stir in the vanilla extract, then gently fold in the flour-coated chocolate chips.
- Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top. Bake for 50–60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean with a few moist crumbs.
- Cool and Serve: Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
