Step-by-Step Instructions for Chocolate Chip Loaf Cake
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a 9x5 inch loaf pan by greasing and lining it with parchment paper.
  2. Sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl and set aside.
  3. Cream together the unsalted butter and sugar until pale and fluffy, about 3-5 minutes.
  4. Add eggs one at a time to the butter and sugar mixture, mixing until fully incorporated.
  5. Gradually add half of the dry flour mixture, then mix in the whole milk, and finally add the remaining flour mixture.
  6. Toss the chocolate chips in flour and gently fold them into the batter.
  7. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and bake for 45-55 minutes, checking for doneness.
  8. Once baked, cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
