Chocolate Chip Cake

I really love baking. Nothing brings a smile to the faces of your friends and family like home baked goods. The reaction you get from people when you bake something delicious is fabulous. For me, what tops the delicious list is a chocolate chip cinnamon/sugar cake. My supervisor previously said this cake ranked in the top 5 desserts he ever had. This week I baked the cake again for his last day and he bumped the cake of to the top 3. Today I delivered the cake to a friend. We had plans to hang out and I said I'd bring a cake. I think I am setting a new goal to deliver at least one cake a month. So, just invite me over sometime in the future and maybe you'll get one of my special cake deliveries. I've included the recipe below for anyone who may want to try baking it for themselves. MMMMMM Yummy!
