- 1 cup salted butter softened at room temperature
- 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup milk whole or low-fat
- 2 tablespoons vegetable or canola oil
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract or vanilla paste

Instructions
To make the bundt cake
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees F and generously grease a bundt pan with cooking spray and flour.
- In a medium bowl, whisk the flour, baking powder, and baking soda together until well combined. Set aside.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, or in a large bowl using an electric mixer, beat the butter and sugar together on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 1 minute.
- Beat in the milk, oil, sour cream, and vanilla extract. Add in the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition, and scraping down the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula as needed.
- Add in the flour mixture, mixing just until combined. Finally, stir in the chocolate chips.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Bake for 55 to 60 minutes, or until the cake is golden brown AND a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Allow the cake to cool in the pan, set on a wire rack, for 10 minutes. Then flip the cake onto the cooling rack and cool completely.
To make the frosting
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the butter until smooth. Add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract and beat together until combined.
- Add in the milk and beat together for a minute or until creamy and smooth. If the frosting seems too thin, add more powdered sugar, if it's too thick, add in more milk. Transfer cooled bundt cake to a serving plate, spread frosting on top and sprinkle with more mini chocolate chips (optional). Slice and enjoy!
