Ingredients
- 2.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 0.75 cup granulated sugar
- 0.75 cup light brown sugar, packed
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 3 large eggs
- 1 cup whole milk
- 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 0.75 cup chopped walnuts (optional)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans for a layer cake, or one 10-inch bundt pan, depending on your choice.
Step 2
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, use a hand or stand mixer to cream the butter, granulated sugar, and light brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Step 4
Add the vanilla extract and eggs to the butter mixture, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
Step 5
Reduce the mixer speed to low and alternately add the dry ingredients and milk, starting and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix just until combined. Do not overmix.
Step 6
Fold in the chocolate chips and walnuts (if using) with a spatula, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Step 7
Pour the batter evenly into the prepared cake pans or bundt pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Step 8
For layer cakes, bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. For bundt cakes, bake for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the deepest part of the cake comes out clean.
Step 9
Once baked, let the cakes cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then carefully transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 10
If making a layer cake, frost and assemble the layers with your favorite frosting. For a bundt cake, dust with powdered sugar or drizzle with melted chocolate. Slice and serve!
