Ingredients

• 200 grams granulated sugar
• 2 large eggs
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 260 grams all-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 240 grams sour cream
• 150 grams semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 100 grams light brown sugar
• 1.5 teaspoons ground cinnamon
• 60 grams unsalted butter, melted (for streusel)
• 80 grams all-purpose flour (for streusel)
• 50 grams semi-sweet chocolate chips (for topping)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and grease a 9-inch (23 cm) round cake pan. Line the bottom with parchment paper for easy removal.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, whisk together the 260 grams of all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, beat 170 grams of unsalted butter and 200 grams of granulated sugar together until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes.

Step 4

Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in the vanilla extract.

Step 5

With the mixer on low speed, alternately add the dry ingredients and the sour cream in three additions, starting and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.

Step 6

Fold in 150 grams of semi-sweet chocolate chips with a spatula. Be careful not to overmix.

Step 7

Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and spread it evenly with a spatula.

Step 8

To make the streusel topping, combine 100 grams of light brown sugar, 1.5 teaspoons of ground cinnamon, 80 grams of all-purpose flour, and 60 grams of melted butter in a small bowl. Mix until crumbly.

Step 9

Sprinkle the streusel mixture evenly over the cake batter, followed by 50 grams of semi-sweet chocolate chips for topping.

Step 10

Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or with just a few moist crumbs.

Step 11

Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then carefully remove it from the pan and let it cool completely on a wire rack.

Step 12

Slice and serve the Chocolate Chip Streusel Cake with coffee, tea, or as a delightful dessert!
