Since Autumn is my favorite season, I love to bake a lot then. I love to make anything that will make a lovely traditional treat to make each year. This Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Cake really sounded like a neat recipe. I found it online and thought it was a cool recipe to share, enjoy! 😊🍁
Ingredients:
- 3 cups flour
- 2 cups sugar
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 2 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 2 tsp cinnamon
- 4 eggs
- 1 cup pumpkin puree
- 2 cups chopped walnuts
- 1 cup chocolate chips (plus extra if desired)
- Additional nuts and cinnamon for garnish (optional)
Instructions:
-
Preheat oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour the bottom of a tube pan, ensuring it’s well-coated to prevent sticking.
-
Mix wet ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, beat together the eggs, oil, and pumpkin puree until well combined and slightly frothy.
-
Incorporate dry ingredients: Gradually add in the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon to the wet mixture. Stir gently until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
-
Add mix-ins: Fold in the chopped walnuts and chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the batter. For an extra burst of flavor, feel free to add more chocolate chips, nuts, and a sprinkle of cinnamon.
-
Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared tube pan and spread it out evenly. Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 1 hour and 10 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
-
Cool: Once baked, remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for about 10-15 minutes. Then, carefully transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before serving.
This Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Cake is a delightful treat that perfectly captures the flavors of autumn. Enjoy it as a sweet finale to your Thanksgiving feast, or whip it up for a cozy weeknight dessert. With its moist texture, warm spices, and decadent chocolate chips, it’s sure to become a seasonal favorite in your household. 🎃🍰
