At low speed, add the buttermilk mixture and the flour mixture alternately in thirds to the mixer bowl, beginning with the buttermilk mixture and ending with the flour mixture.
  3. Mix only until just blended. Next, add the chocolate chips and fold the batter with a rubber spatula to ensure it’s completely blended. Divide the batter among the prepared pans and bake in the middle of the oven for 45 to 50 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes, remove from the pans and allow to cool completely before frosting.
