Chocolate Chip & Nut Cake image

You know how we all love those choccy chip nut cookies? Well, imagine that idea in a CAKE! Hmmmmmmmmmmm......I DO love cake, and this one in particular as you can vary the amount of chocolate or nuts, or even the type of nuts - go on - make your OWN version of this recipe. It's also rather unusual as it uses the 'rubbed in' method more usually associated with pastries. As written, this is a lovely 'English Tea Loaf' - you know, slice thin and serve with afternoon tea; but add more chocolate and nuts and it becomes an 'afternoon delight' that you'd be lucky to divide into 8 servings!

I've made this cake several times and it's always a success. It's moist and flavorful, and the nuts add a nice crunch. I usually use pecans, but I've also used walnuts and almonds. They all work well.

This is my go-to recipe for chocolate chip nut cake. It's always a crowd-pleaser. I like to add a little bit of cinnamon to the batter for extra flavor.

I'm not a big baker, but this cake was so simple to make. I didn't have any chocolate chips, so I used chopped up pieces of a chocolate bar. It turned out great!
