Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt

Wet Ingredients

  • ½ cup butter (softened, 1 stick)
  • 1 cup granulated white sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup milk (whole, 2%, or any plant-based milk)

Add-ins

  • 4.5 ounces mini chocolate chips (¾ cup)
  • OPTIONAL for sprinkling: 1.5 ounces mini chocolate chips (¼ cup)

Instructions

  1. Preheat and prepare the pan: Heat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a loaf pan with butter or non-stick spray and lightly dust it with flour to prevent sticking.
  2. Mix dry ingredients: In a small bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt until evenly combined.
  3. Cream butter and sugar: In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter with the granulated sugar, egg, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and well blended.
  4. Combine batter: Alternately add the dry flour mixture and milk to the wet ingredients, mixing gently after each addition, just until combined to avoid overmixing.
  5. Fold in chocolate chips: Carefully fold the mini chocolate chips into the batter to distribute them evenly throughout.
  6. Bake: Pour the batter evenly into the prepared loaf pan. Optionally sprinkle extra mini chocolate chips on top. Bake for 50 to 55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. Cool and serve: Let the bread cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • Add a teaspoon of espresso powder to the dry ingredients to enhance the chocolate flavor.
  • Use almond extract instead of vanilla extract for a different flavor profile.
  • For a caramel flavor, substitute half of the white sugar with brown sugar.
  • Any type of milk works—whole milk, 2%, or plant-based options like almond, oat, or soy milk can be used.
