I totally forgot to take a picture of this yummy bread and this was the only piece left when I remembered. It was really yummy, a good base quick bread base for any kind of chip you might like to add in. I made if for Christmas Bunco along with a chocolate peppermint loaf and a gingerbread loaf both of which came in mixes. I served them alongside the flavored whipped creams from Target which come in Gingerbread, Hot Cocoa, Salted Caramel, and Peppermint and are delicious!

1 3/4 cups flour

1 1/4 teaspoons baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup (1 stick) butter softened

3/4 cup sugar

2 eggs

1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla

3/4 cup milk

1 cup chips of your choice if desired (toss chips with a little flour before adding to recipe which helps to keep them from all sinking to the bottom of the pan)

1 Heat oven to 350. Spray loaf pan with cooking spray.

2 Whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt in a small bowl.

3 Cream together butter and sugar with your mixer on low. Add eggs, one at a time, then add vanilla. 

4 Starting with flour mixture and alternating with milk, beat in just until mixed together. Mix in chips if using gently with a spatula.

5 Bake 50 – 60 minutes or until knife inserted comes out with moist crumbs. Cool on rack in pan for 20 minutes before removing.
