Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 1.5 cups granulated sugar
- 0.75 cups unsalted butter
- 4 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2.5 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 1 cup whole milk
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 0.25 cups powdered sugar (for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9-inch (23 cm) round cake pan or bundt pan. Lightly dust with flour and set aside.
In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, cream the granulated sugar and butter together using a hand mixer or stand mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the eggs one at a time to the sugar-butter mixture, beating well after each addition. Mix in the vanilla extract.
Gradually alternate adding the dry flour mixture and the milk into the wet mixture, starting and ending with the flour mixture. Mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
Fold in the chocolate chips gently using a rubber spatula to evenly distribute them throughout the batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
Let the cake cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once the cake is fully cooled, sift powdered sugar over the top using a fine mesh sieve to create a snowflake-like effect.
Slice and serve your Chocolate Chip Snowflake Cake as a decadent treat.
