Ingredients:

- 1 cup (200g) granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup (100g) packed light brown sugar
- 1/2 cup (120ml) vegetable oil
- 1/2 cup (120ml) buttermilk
- 3 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup (50g) unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup (175g) semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions:
Preheat the Oven and Prepare the Pan:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch round cake pan or line it with parchment paper. Set aside.
Mix Dry Ingredients:
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
Combine Wet Ingredients:
In another bowl, whisk together the vegetable oil, buttermilk, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth and well combined.
Mix Wet and Dry Ingredients:
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
Add Chocolate Chips:
Gently fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Bake the Cake:
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and spread it out evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Cool and Serve:
Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once cooled, slice and serve the Chocolate Chip Cake and enjoy every chocolatey bite!
Notes:
- For an extra touch of indulgence, serve slices of this cake warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
- Feel free to customize this cake by using different types of chocolate chips or adding chopped nuts for extra texture.
