This cake is heavy without being dry; everyone in my family loves it, and visitors do too!
Ingredients
- ¼ cup poppy seeds
- 1 cup buttermilk
- 4 egg whites
- 1 cup butter
- 1 ¼ cups white sugar
- 4 egg yolks
- 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 2 tablespoons baking powder
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- ¾ cup miniature dark chocolate chips
- cinnamon sugar to taste
Directions
Step 1
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease and flour a Bundt or angel food cake pan.
Step 2
Pour the poppy seeds into the buttermilk in a small bowl. Set aside to soak for 15 minutes. Meanwhile, whip the egg whites to medium peaks; set aside.
Step 3
Cream together the butter and sugar in a large bowl until fluffy. Add egg yolks one at a time, blending well between additions. Sift the flour, baking soda, and baking powder into the egg mixture; fold gently to mix. Stir in the poppy seeds, milk, and vanilla extract. Gently fold in the beaten egg whites until just incorporated.
Step 4
Pour half of the batter into the prepared pan. Sprinkle in the chocolate chips and cinnamon sugar. Pour the remaining batter over top, and sprinkle with additional cinnamon sugar. With a knife, lightly swirl in the chocolate chips and cinnamon sugar so they are dispersed throughout the cake.
Step 5
Bake in preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 1 hour. Allow cake to cool completely before removing from the pan.
