TERRIBLE RECIPE
This was the WORST I agree!!! Thought I would try it even though there was a bad review - tried to make the chips smaller in the food processor but that didn't work - exactly like they said - chips all sank to the bottom and burned the bottom of the pan and the cake got stuck. It was terrible - TERRIBLE ended up with a store bought angel food cake for mother's day.

This was a disaster. All of the chocolate chips sank to the bottom and stuck to the pan, so I dont even know how it tasted!
