Very high, with a lovely soft texture.
Now, I take 100 g of dark chocolate chips.

I mix well so that each piece is slightly coated.
This little trick helps the chocolate chips stay evenly distributed throughout the cake.
instead of all sinking to the bottom during cooking.

in a preheated oven at 180 degrees for about 50 minutes.
