Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.75 cups granulated sugar
- 0.5 cups unsalted butter (cold, cubed)
- 1 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoons baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 0.5 cups sour cream
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 large egg
- 0.5 cups mini chocolate chips
- 0.25 cups brown sugar (packed)
- 0.5 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 1 tablespoons powdered sugar (for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease or line a 6-cavity mini cake tin with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, and salt. Add the cold, cubed butter and use a pastry cutter or your fingers to mix until the texture resembles coarse crumbs. Reserve 1/2 cup of this mixture for the topping.
To the remaining mixture, add the baking powder and baking soda. Mix to combine.
In a small bowl, whisk together the sour cream, milk, vanilla extract, and egg. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently mix until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Fold in the mini chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Divide the batter evenly among the cavities of the prepared mini cake tin, filling each about 3/4 full.
To the reserved crumb topping, add the brown sugar and cinnamon. Mix until well combined, then sprinkle this mixture generously over the tops of the batter in each cavity.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a cake comes out clean.
Allow the cakes to cool in the tin for 10 minutes, then carefully remove them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Before serving, dust the tops with powdered sugar for an extra touch of sweetness and presentation.
