  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup milk
  • 3/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream

For the fudge topping, you'll need:

  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips
  • 2 cups powdered sugar

Instructions

Making the Cake

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 9-inch round cake pan.

In a medium bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla.

In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the creamed mixture alternately with the milk. Beat until smooth. Fold in the chocolate chips and walnuts (if using).

Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Allow the cake to cool before frosting.

Making the Fudge Topping

In a medium saucepan, melt the butter and chocolate chips over low heat. Remove from the heat and stir in the powdered sugar, salt, and vanilla. Gradually add the cream, stirring until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Spread the fudge topping over the cooled cake.

Serve the fudge sponge cake warm or at room temperature. Enjoy!
