How to Make 7 Up Chocolate Chip Pound Cake

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 10-inch tube pan.
  2. Cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter and 1 ¾ cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in 2 teaspoons vanilla extract.
  4. Add 4 large eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
  5. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour and ¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder.
  6. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  7. Stir in ½ cup 7 Up until batter is smooth.
  8. Gently fold in 2 cups chocolate chips.
  9. Pour batter into the prepared pan and bake for 60-65 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  10. Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
