Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
  2. Butter an 11x7x1 3/4-inch baking pan or ovenproof glass baking dish.
  3. In a large bowl, combine the flour, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Mix with an electric mixer on low speed for 15 seconds.
  4. Add the butter pieces to the dry mixture and mix until the butter pieces are the size of peas. Loose flour should still be visible.
  5. Mix in the egg. The mixture will still look dry.
  6. Rub any lumps out of the baking soda and gently mix the baking soda into the sour cream.
  7. Stir the sour cream mixture and the milk (if using) into the batter. Stir just until the batter is evenly moistened.
  8. Stir in the chocolate chips. The batter will be thick.
  9. Spread the batter evenly into the prepared baking pan.
  10. Bake for about 40-47 minutes, or until the middle feels slightly soft and the edges are firm when gently pressed. A toothpick inserted in the center should have a few crumbs clinging to it.
  11. Cool on a wire baking rack. Note that the center of the cake may sink slightly as it cools.
