Servings: persons

2 cups Plain Flour
3/4 cups Caster Sugar
2 teaspoons Baking Powder
1/2 teaspoons Baking Soda
1/4 teaspoons Salt
2 Large Eggs
2 teaspoons Vanilla Extract
1/2 cups Unsalted Butter, melted

FOR THE GLAZE:
1/2 cups Chocolate Chips
2 Tablespoons Unsalted Butter
2 teaspoons Light Corn Syrup

1
For the bread:
2
Preheat the oven to 180u00b0C (350u00b0F or Gas 4). Butter or spray an 9x5 inch loaf pan. Set aside.
3
Whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
4
Whisk together eggs, vanilla extract, butter, and sour cream. Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients, and mix until just combined. Do not over-mix. Pour half of the mixture into a separate bowl, and fold in the cocoa powder.
5
Spoon a dollop of each mixture alternately into the prepared pan, then using a toothpick, swirl the two mixtures together. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the centre comes out clean. Cover loosely with aluminium foil halfway through baking to prevent the bread from browning too much.
6
For the glaze:
7
Place chocolate chips, butter, and syrup in a heat-proof bowl, and microwave until completely melted and smooth, stirring every 10 seconds. Drizzle glaze over the cooled bread, and leave to set.

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Preheat the oven fully and bake on the middle rack for the most even results.
Check for doneness a few minutes early — a toothpick in the center should come out with just a few moist crumbs.
Let it cool before slicing so it sets properly and holds its shape.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Use a neutral oil or a plant-based spread in place of butter for a dairy-free version.
Brown sugar instead of white sugar adds a deeper, more caramel-like flavor.
A good 1:1 gluten-free flour blend works well if you need a gluten-free version.
Coconut cream is a reliable plant-based alternative to dairy cream.
