Chocolate Chip Cream Cheese Bread

My husband calls this Chocolate Chip Cream Cheese Bread a cookie in a loaf. It’s a very yummy recipe that works great for mid-afternoon snack or dessert. The cream cheese adds a little extra tang and super creaminess to the bread. This is also a wonderful bread to make around the holiday time to share with friends and neighbors because who doesn’t love chocolate chips?

A great recipe for creamy, smooth Chocolate Chip Cream Cheese bread that is a perfect dessert or snacking bread. Easy to make and delicious to eat! #quickbreadrecipes #chocolatechipcreamcheesebread #quickbreads #chocolatechip

Chocolate Chip Cream Cheese Bread

What you need:

  • 1 stick butter, softened
  • 8oz cream cheese
  • 1 1/4 c. sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 t. vanilla
  • 2 c. flour
  • 1 t. baking powder
  • 1/4 t. salt
  • 1/4 c. milk
  • 1 1/2 c. chocolate chips

What to do:

Mix together all the ingredients except for the flour and the milk. Then add 1 cup of flour and 1/8 c. milk. Mix well, then add in the second cup of flour and the rest of the milk. Whipping this dough mixture with the hand mixers isn’t completely necessary but it will give it a slightly less dense texture. It tastes good either way!

Pour the mixture into 2 greased loaf pans or 4 mini loaf pans.

Yum! I took this recipe over to all the neighbors on Memorial Day for a little treat. I’ve also given it away as a gift around the holidays to friends and family. This is one of those perfect dessert bread recipes. It’s light enough for an afternoon treat and perfectly sweet enough for a little something after a meal.

  1. I don’t see the size of the larger pan specified. Says it makes 2 loaves. Would they be 8×4 or 9×5 loaves? Thanks.

  5. Omigosh… I am finally trying this! Got the corn off the fields. The rye planted. And, even though it’s late, I was going thru my bookmarks, and this looked so good. Been waiting to try this for a while. All I have on hand is spelt flour, organic and sprouted. So, I just doubled the egg, baking soda ((instead of powder), and salt. Hopefully that will help keep it from being so heavy from the spelt. It’s in the oven now…. Looks good! Will post to let you know how it turns out. I am so excited!

  6. It turned out awesome!!! My husband, raised Amish, grew up eating good homemade breads. When he tasted, said he loved it! Thanks for the great recipe! It was a hit in our household! 🙂

    Not sure what happened. The batter was like dough and never cooked all the way through. I checked the ingredient list several times and everything was as listed. Super disappointed with my results. 😢
