Very Basic Chocolate Chip Pound Cake image

Found in Family Circle magazine. What really drew my attention to this recipe was the fact it did not use sour cream and had very basic ingredients. This recipe makes 2 loaves of cake so is perfect if you want to eat one and freeze one for later or for gift giving.
