Ever found yourself in need of a delightful treat that effortlessly balances chocolatey richness with a subtle, nutty almond undertone? This Chocolate Almond Loaf Cake is your go-to! It's a heavenly, moist, and lightly spiced cake that requires minimal effort to prepare but delivers maximum impact in flavor. Perfect for a lazy afternoon tea, a posh dinner party, or simply indulging your sweet tooth whenever the mood strikes.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x5-inch loaf pan.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In a large bowl, beat the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together until light and fluffy.
Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition, followed by the almond milk, vanilla extract, and almond extract. Mix until well combined.
Gradually mix in the dry ingredients until just combined. Fold in the chocolate chips.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spoon or spatula.
Sprinkle sliced almonds over the top of the batter.
Bake for 50-55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing and serving.
