Double Chocolate Loaf

The schedule this week called for a loaf: playdates and nanny interviews.  This time, I wanted it to be chocolate.  The original recipe for this comes from O Magazine and I found several food blogs that successfully made it.

Ingredient :

• 3/4 cup dark brown sugar
• 1 cup Dutch cocoa powder, sifted (or regular, old, cocoa, unsifted, like I used)
• 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
• 3/4 cup granulated sugar
• 1 1/2 t baking soda
• 3/4 t baking powder
• 1 t salt
• 2 eggs
• 1 egg yolk
• 3/4 cup buttermilk
• 1/2 cup vegetable oil
• 1 t vanilla
• 1 t espresso powder
• 8 ounces semisweet or bittersweet chocolate chunks

Instruction :

1. Preheat oven to 350°.
2. Place brown sugar in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a paddle attachment.
3. Add cocoa, flour, granulated sugar, baking soda, baking powder, and salt and espresso powder, if using.
4. In a separate bowl, whisk egg and egg yolks until blended, then add buttermilk, vegetable oil, and vanilla; whisk until combined.
5. Turn mixer to low and pour in egg-buttermilk mixture in a thin steady stream, mixing just until combined.
6. Remove the bowl; stir in chocolate chunks by hand with a wooden spoon.
7. Pour the batter into a loaf pan and bake in the center of oven for 1 hour, or until a toothpick inserted in the center of loaf comes out clean.
