Method

Cake Directions

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.

  2. 2

    Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.

  3. 3

    Cream Butter and Sugars

    In a large bowl, beat the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.

  4. 4

    Add Eggs and Vanilla

    Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.

  5. 5

    Combine Mixtures

    Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.

  6. 6

    Fold in Chocolate Chips

    Gently fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips with a spatula.

  7. 7

    Bake the Cake

    Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread evenly. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

  8. 8

    Cool the Cake

    Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then remove it from the pan and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Chocolate Sauce Directions

  1. 9

    Prepare Chocolate Sauce

    In a small saucepan, combine cocoa powder, granulated sugar, and water. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly until the mixture thickens, about 5-7 minutes.

  2. 10

    Add Vanilla

    Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract. Let the sauce cool slightly before serving.

Whipped Cream Directions

  1. 11

    Whip the Cream

    In a mixing bowl, combine heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Using an electric mixer, whip on medium-high speed until soft peaks form, about 3-5 minutes.
