- ½ tsp baking soda
- 8 tbsp melted butter (113 g)
- ½ cup granulated sugar (100 g)

Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a loaf pan and line it with parchment paper.
- Whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, salt, baking powder, and baking soda in a large bowl.
- Beat the melted butter with both sugars until blended, then add vanilla and eggs, mixing until smooth.
- Stir in sourdough discard and milk until fully integrated.

- Add in the chocolate chips, saving some for topping.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and sprinkle reserved chocolate chips on top.
