How to Make Chocolate Chunk Vanilla Cake

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour an 8 or 9-inch square baking pan.
  2. Cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened unsalted butter and 1 ¾ cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Add 4 large eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
  4. Beat in 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract.
  5. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, ½ teaspoon baking powder, and ½ teaspoon salt.
  6. Gradually add half of the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  7. Stir in 1 (12-ounce) can evaporated milk (Carnation), then add the remaining dry ingredients and mix until just combined.
  8. Fold in 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chunks.
  9. Pour batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
  10. Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. Let cool completely before frosting (optional).
