- ¼ cup brown sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.

- Combine: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Fold in chocolate chips.
- Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and bake for 50–60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
