Serves

 Makes 1 loaf cake 

 



Total Time

 1 Hour 15 Minutes 

 



 

 

Ingredients

    250g sugar  

   142g butter, softened  

   1/4 tsp salt  

   3 eggs  

   215g flour  

   140g sour cream  

   4 prune plums, finely chopped  

   1/2 cup chocolate chips  

   1 tbsp flour  

 



  

 



Method

 Step 1 

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F and grease and flour a loaf pan.



 Step 2 

Place sugar, butter, and salt into the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Beat on high speed for 4 full minutes, until light and fluffy with no graininess left. Add in the eggs one at a time, mixing for 30 seconds between each one to ensure they are incorporated fully. Add in the flour in four portions and the sour cream in three; begin with the flour and alternate mixing the dry and wet.



 Step 3 

Scrape the sides of the bowl and mix on low for 30 seconds to ensure homogeneity.



 Step 4 

Toss the chopped plums and chocolate chips with a tablespoon of flour, then gently fold into the batter.



 Step 5 

Spread batter into prepared pan; bake for 45 minutes to an hour, or until a tester inserted into the center comes out mostly clean and the inside registers 200 degrees F.
