Combining two of my favorite things – chocolate and sourdough! Alas I can’t tell you how it tasted because I took it to my neighbor Chelsea for her birthday. It smelled amazing! Guess I’ll just have to make another loaf!

1 1/2 cups flour

1/2 cup cocoa

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

6 tablespoons butter, softened

3/4 cup sugar

2 eggs

1 cup sourdough discard

1/4 – 1/2 cup chocolate chips

1 Preheat oven to 350. Spray loaf pan with cooking spray for baking.

2 Whisk together flour, cocoa, salt, baking powder, and baking soda.

3 Beat butter and sugar until well combined and creamy. Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating well between each addition.

4 Add 1/3 of flour mixture and beat well then add 1/3 of sourdough discard and beat well. Repeat two more times.

5 Pour into prepared pan and bake for 14 minutes. Sprinkle chocolate chips on top of loaf and bake for an additional 20 – 25 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.

6 Cool in pan 10 – 15 minutes before removing to cool completely.
