Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch round cake pan.
In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt.
In a large bowl, mix melted butter with brown sugar and granulated sugar until smooth. Add eggs and vanilla; stir to combine.
Gradually incorporate dry ingredients into the wet mixture, then fold in chocolate chips.
Spread the batter evenly into the prepared pan and bake for 20–25 minutes until edges are golden.
Let cool before preparing the buttercream: beat softened butter until smooth, gradually add powdered sugar, then mix in cream, vanilla, and salt until fluffy.
Frost the cooled cake as desired.
