Ingredients

• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 2 cups white sugar
• 1 cup butter, softened
• 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease and flour one 9- or 10-inch tube pan.

Step 2

Cream sugar and butter in a large bowl with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs, then add water and vanilla. Stir flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and nutmeg together in a separate bowl until well mixed; beat into egg mixture just to combine. Stir in apples and chocolate chips until evenly distributed. Pour batter into the prepared pan.

Step 3

Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted near the center of cake comes out clean, about 1 hour and 15 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool.
