How to Make Gooey Almond Butter Cake

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the buttermilk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
Stir in the almond butter and optional chocolate chips.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
Bake for 50-57 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs.
Let the cake cool in the pan for at least 10 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
