 --------  ------------  --------------------------------
    6      tablespoons   unsalted butter,
                         (plus extra for pan)
      3/4  cup           sugar
    1      teaspoon      vanilla extract
      1/4  teaspoon      salt
    1      cup           cold sour cream, regular -- or low-fat
    1                    egg
      3/4  teaspoon      baking soda
      3/4  teaspoon      baking powder
    1 1/2  cups          flour, plus extra -- for pan
      3/4  cup           mini-size chocolate chips
 
 
 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Grease and flour a 9-inch
 loaf pan.
 
 In a large heavy saucepan over medium heat, begin melting
 the butter, stirring occasionally. When it's half melted,
 remove the pan from the heat and stir until fully melted.
 
 Stir in the sugar, vanilla, salt, sour cream and egg. Add
 the baking soda and baking powder in pinches, breaking up
 any lumps with your fingers. Stir thoroughly. Stir in the
 flour, just until blended, then the chocolate chips.
 
 Pour and scrape the batter into the pan and bake in the
 preheated oven for 45 to 50 minutes, or until a tester
 inserted in the middle comes out with just a crumb clinging
 to it. Cool on a rack for 10 minutes. Remove from the pan
 and cool on the rack for about 15 minutes more.
