Ingredients
- 3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, divided (6 tablespoons chilled and cut into cubes, 6 tablespoons softened), plus more for the pan
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/3 cup plus 1 1/2 tablespoons sugar, divided
- 1 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon fine sea salt
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup low-fat plain yogurt
- 1/4 cup raspberries
Method
Preheat the oven to 350°F.
Butter a 9-inch round pan and set it aside.
In a large bowl, whisk together flour, 1/3 cup sugar, baking soda, salt and baking powder.
Work 6 tablespoons chilled butter into flour mixture with your fingers until it resembles small pebbles; stir in chocolate chips.
Stir in yogurt until just combined, and then knead in the bowl just until a dough forms.
Shape into a 6- or 7-inch imperfect loaf, transfer to prepared pan and bake until cooked through and golden brown, about 50 minutes.
Set aside to let cool.
In a medium bowl, use a fork to mash together remaining 6 tablespoons softened butter, raspberries and remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons sugar.
Spread onto slices of bread and serve.
