Ingredients
Cake Batter
- 2cups all purpose flour
- 1 1/2cup sugar

Recipe Notes
I use my Kitchenaid stand mixer with the wire whisk. This makes the cake extra fluffy.
Drop the chocolate chips onto the batter gently, or they will all sink to the bottom of the pan. I use Nestle semi-sweet chocolate chips, Whole Foods organic sour cream and organic butter and eggs when possible.
