Cookie Dough Cake

When I made this cake the first time, I left it in the oven a bit long.  It didn't burn, but it was a bit dry and hard - something like a giant cookie that is still soft enough to cut into slices that hold their shape without crumbling.

Cookie Dough Cake

3 cups plain flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup butter
1 and 1/2 cup brown sugar
2 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla
2 cups chocolate chips

Preheat oven to 180C, 350 F
Mix together all the dry ingredients in a seperate bowl
Cream together butter, sugar and vanilla
Add the eggs one at a time, alternating the eggs with about 1/4 of the dry mixture
After the second egg is mixed in, add the rest of the flour to make a smooth, thick batter
Stir through the chocolate chips
Spread the batter into a lined, greased cake tin
Bake for 20 minutes - it will be a little soft and wobbily in the middle.  The idea is that it will make a moist, squishy cake
Cool completely before removing from the pan
