Ingredients
- 12 cup unsalted butter
- softened
- 1 cup light brown sugar
- 12 cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- at room temperature
- 1 cup buttermilk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 12 cups all-purpose flour
- 34 cup cocoa
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 14 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 325AF.
- Butter and lightly flour a 9x5x3-inch loaf pan, or spray it with a butter-flour spray.
- In a large bowl, on the medium speed of an electric mixer, cream the butter until smooth.
- Add the sugars and beat until fluffy, about 3 minutes.
- Add the egg and beat well, then the buttermilk and vanilla.
- Sift the flour, cocoa, baking soda and salt together right into your wet ingredients.
- Stir together with a spoon until well-blended but do not over mix.
- Scrape down the batter in the bowl, making sure the ingredients are well blended.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan.
- Bake for 60 to 70 minutes, or until a cake tester inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean.
- Cool in pan on a rack for about 10 to 15 minutes, at which point you can cool it the rest of the way out of the pan.
- Serve with fresh berries.
