Chocolate Bread Recipe
Report
Two of life's pleasures, bread and chocolate, come together in this decadent chocolate bread recipe! Moist, tender, and indulgent, this bread owes its texture to the blend of melted butter and creamy buttermilk. Rich chocolate chips are scattered throughout for added chocolatey goodness in every bite! It's also simple to make - the only tricky part is resisting eating the whole loaf warm out of the oven!

Ingredients
- ¾ cup cocoa powder
- 1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
- ½ cup brown sugar
- ⅓ cup granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons espresso powder optional
- 1 teaspoon EACH: baking soda and baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup melted butter
- 1 cup buttermilk
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon vanilla
- 1 cup chocolate chips divided
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line the bottom of a 9x5-inch loaf pan with parchment paper. Grease the loaf pan and then dust it with cocoa powder.
- Sift the cocoa powder into a large bowl. Add the flour, brown sugar, granulated sugar, espresso powder if using, baking soda, baking powder, and salt and whisk well.
- Melt the butter in a medium-sized bowl in your microwave - you can also do this in a pot on the stove. Add the buttermilk (the butter will become lumpy) and heat it for another 30 seconds in the microwave - just until the butter is melted again. Make sure it is not too hot and then whisk in the eggs and vanilla.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until combined. Fold in ¾ cup of the chocolate chips.
- Pour the batter into the loaf pan, smooth out the top, and sprinkle the remaining ¼ cup of chocolate chips on top.
- Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let it cool for 10 minutes in the pan and then transfer it to a cooling rack to cool completely.
