Dark Chocolate Chip Cake ~ 黑巧克力蛋糕
This dark chocolate chip pound cake is soft and spongy with a tender texture. As I used 70% cocoa Lindt dark chocolate, the cake is not too sweet and the slight bitterness of the dark chocolate complements well with the sweetness of the cake. This cake has a combination of butter, oil and buttermilk hence it gives a better crumb and not heavy. The oil keeps it moist and fluffy. Enjoy it with a cup of hot coffee or tea.
