1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 cup (4 ounces) unsalted butter, softened
2 cups sugar
4 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 cup buttermilk

7 milk chocolate bars, melted and cooled, about 11 ounces total

  • Cream together the butter, sugar, eggs, and vanilla with an electric hand mixer.
  • Add syrup and melted chocolate and mix completely.
  • Blend in the buttermilk.

  • Bake loaf pans for 55 minutes, the rectangular pans for 25 minutes, and the tube pan for 45 minutes to an hour.
