Ingredients
  

  • 175 g 1¼ cups plain or all-purpose flour
  • 40 g ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder, sifted
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • teaspoons baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 90 g ½ cup brown sugar
  • 50 g ¼ cup caster sugar or granulated sugar
  • 115 g ½ cup or 1 stick unsalted butter, melted and cooled
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 large eggs
  • 180 ml ¾ cup full-fat buttermilk
  • 110 g ¾ cup chocolate chips

Instructions
 

  • Grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan and line it with baking or parchment paper. Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) for a standard oven or 160°C (320°F) for a fan-forced oven.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, salt, brown sugar, and caster (or granulated) sugar. Stir gently to mix the dry ingredients together.
  • In a separate small bowl, whisk together the melted butter, vanilla extract, and eggs using a fork, just enough to break up the yolks.
  • Create a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the wet mixture along with the buttermilk. Use a spatula to gently fold everything together until just combined—be careful not to overmix the batter.
  • Fold in 75g (½ cup) of chocolate chips, distributing them evenly throughout the batter.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and sprinkle the remaining 35g (¼ cup) of chocolate chips over the top.
  • Bake for 40–45 minutes, or until a knife inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean. Allow the bread to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before slicing.
