Strawberry chocolate chip cake recipe with step by step photos. Sharing a moist, delicious and very easy to bake cake with fresh strawberries after a short break from blogging.
I love to bake with fresh fruits, fruits lend a very moist and soft texture to the cake along with taste and flavor to the cake. I have already shared many yummy moist cakes with fresh fruits like banana cake, mango cake, strawberry pound cake etc. This strawberry chocolate chip cake recipe is a soft and tasty vanilla cake studded with fresh bits of strawberries and dark chocolate chips.
To make strawberry chocolate chip cake recipe, I suggest you use good quality dark chocolate chip, you can even use grated or very finely chopped dark chocolate bar too. Vanilla imparts a very nice flavor that well compliments with chocolate and strawberries, so make sure you use a good quality vanilla extract or vanilla bean. Vanilla essence will be too high in flavor, so use it with caution if you want to essence. I made this strawberry chocolate chip in a 7″ pan, but next time if I make it I will use a 6 or 6.5″ pan to give a height to the cake. You can even use a loaf tin to make this cake as I did in my eggless tutti frutti cake.
Serve strawberry chocolate chip cake warm as coffee cake, this cake tastes best when served warm. You can store the remaining cake in fridge, it stays soft, you can warm the cold cake slightly just before serving.
