Directions

Rainy Days ask for CHOCOLATE ~

1. Preheat the oven to 180C. Grease and line a roughly 21 cm long loaf tin.
2. In a large bowl sift the cocoa if it has lumps, then whisk in the flour, both sugars, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
3. Reserve ¼ cup of chocolate chips and add the rest to the batter. Mix well then set aside.
4. In a separate bowl whisk together the eggs, milk, melted butter, and vanilla until well mixed.
5. Mix the dry and wet ingredients together. Fold with a spatula until just combined.
6. Pour the batter into the prepared tin, sprinkle over it the remaining chocolate chips.
7. Bake for 50-55 minutes until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a crumb or two (you’ll have to try to miss the choc chips though).
8. Cool in the tin for 10-15 minutes, then let it cool completely.
9. Serve while still a little warm (for gooey chocolate chips) or at room temperature once the chocolate has set again.
