Seriously, this is the Best Ever Chocolate Chip Coffee Cake. Sour Cream, Walnuts, Brown Sugar, Real Butter; it is perfect with a hot cup of coffee!

Best Ever Chocolate Chip Coffee Cake

Best Ever Chocolate Chip Coffee Cake

This cake is probably the best cake I have ever put into my mouth.

In 1970, new neighbors moved in to the neighborhood, two houses from me.

They had kids!

One girl my age and a younger brother!

 

Cast of Ingredients for Chocolate Chip Coffee Cake

Cast of Ingredients for Chocolate Chip Coffee Cake

Terri’s mother was known for her Chocolate Chip Cakes.

I had my first taste when I was 10 years old.

When I was 13 years old, Terri’s mom, gave me her recipe.

I’ve baked this Chocolate Chip Cake, ever since.

 

A close up of a Chocolate Chip Coffee Cake on a plate

I used to work for a law firm in Beverly Hills and we did monthly birthdays.

This cake was the most requested.

People could not believe that I baked it myself and thought it was purchased from the finest bakery.

These days, that would not be such a compliment as I’m not really that fond of bakeries anymore, as they no longer seem to use quality ingredients.

 

Slice

I believe in always using the best quality ingredients that you can afford. Use a Springform Pan with Hole for this recipe.

 

Cut

The topping is so good, I could eat it with a spoon. I usually make double the amount of topping needed, because I love it so much.

Ingredients

Cake

  • 1 cup White Sugar
  • ½ cup Butter room temperature
  • 2 Eggs
  • 2 cups All Purpose Flour
  • 1 tsp Baking Soda
  • 1 tsp Baking Powder
  • 1 cup Sour Cream full fat
  • 1 ½ tsp Pure Vanilla Extract
  • 6 oz Semi Sweet Chocolate Chips

  • ¼ cup Butter
  • ½ cup Walnuts chopped
  • 1 ½ tsp Ghirardelli Premium Cocoa Powder
  • ½ cup All Purpose Flour
  • 6 oz Semi Sweet Chocolate Chips

Recommended Products

Springform Bundt Cake Pan

Instructions

  • Put all Topping ingredients into a bowl and using your hand, crumble together and then set aside.
  • Cream sugar and butter together.  Add the eggs and beat well.
  • In a separate bowl, combine flour, baking soda and baking powder.
  • Add flour mixture to wet mixture slowly and beat well.  Add sour cream and vanilla and beat well.
  • Fold in chocolate chips last.
  • Pour into a buttered/greased spring form pan.  Sprinkle the Topping over the top of batter.
  • Bake at 350 degrees for 55 minutes.
  • Allow the cake to cool an hour before removing outer pan ring.
  • After the cake is completely cooled, carefully place spatulas under the cake on at least two sides and have a second person cradle the cake with their hands and carefully life up the cake and place it on a cake plate

Notes

The topping is my favorite, so I use double the amount, except the chips.
¾ cup brown sugar
½ cup butter
½ cup walnuts
2 tsp cocoa
¾ cup flour
6 oz chocolate chips
