- 1 cup (168 g) milk chocolate chips
- 1 ¼ cups (156 g) all-purpose flour
- ½ cup (59 g) Dutch-processed cocoa powder
- ¼ teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 3 large eggs, room temperature
- 1 ¼ cups (250 g) granulated sugar
- ½ cup (109 g) vegetable oil
- ¾ cup water
- 1 ½ cups (273 g) semi-sweet chocolate chunks, divided
- Preheat the oven to 325°F and spray a 9×5-inch metal loaf pan with nonstick cooking spray. 
- To a medium, microwave-safe bowl, add the milk chocolate chips. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until the chips are melted and smooth. Set aside to cool slightly while you prepare the dry ingredients. 
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. 
- To the bowl of a stand mixer with a paddle attachment, add the eggs and sugar. Beat until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes. 
- With the mixer on low, add the melted chocolate, vegetable oil, and water. Mix until smooth. 
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until no lumps remain. Fold in 1 cup of chocolate chunks. 
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan. Top with remaining ½ cup of chocolate chunks. Bake for 85-90 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out with a few crumbs, but no wet batter.
