Ingredients

• 1 cup unsalted butter
• 2 cups granulated sugar
• 4 large eggs
• 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
• 1 cup sour cream
• 2.5 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 1.5 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour (for coating chocolate chips)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C) and grease a 10-cup bundt or tube pan generously with butter, followed by a light dusting of flour to prevent sticking.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter and granulated sugar together using a hand or stand mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy, approximately 3-4 minutes.

Step 3

Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition to ensure they are fully incorporated.

Step 4

Mix in the vanilla extract and sour cream until smooth and creamy.

Step 5

In a separate bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

Step 6

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Do not overmix.

Step 7

In a small bowl, toss the chocolate chips with 2 tablespoons of flour. This helps prevent them from sinking to the bottom of the cake.

Step 8

Fold the flour-coated chocolate chips gently into the batter using a rubber spatula, ensuring even distribution.

Step 9

Pour the batter evenly into the prepared bundt or tube pan, smoothing the top with the spatula.

Step 10

Bake in the preheated oven for 65-70 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean or with only a few crumbs.

Step 11

Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 15 minutes. Then carefully invert the cake onto a wire rack and let it cool completely before slicing.

Step 12

Serve as is or with a dusting of powdered sugar for an elegant finish. Enjoy!
