Sharon, this bread is wonderful, tasty and moist. I used pecans in this bread. I really liked the buttermilk, which did make the bread moist. Thanks for posting this wonderful recipe. I will definately use this one again.

FANTASTIC RECIPE!! After mixing the sugar, butter and eggs together I thought I had done something wrong with the mixing, but then I realised that the problem was that the butter I used was too cold making it curdle a little. But other than that it was fantastic. I followed the recipe to a tee except I added a little more nuts(I used walnuts) and I also added some choc chips. Thankyou for posting this recipe Sharon123!!

This was pretty good, Mine only cooked for about 45 mins and was perfect in texture. Not too sweet but good. Next time I may add some semi-sweet chips for additional chocolate.

This was good. I found it to be a little dry, but maybe because I should have cut back on the cooking time a bit. The kids really liked it — although they were wishing for something a bit more sweet. Next time, I think I will add another tsp. of vanilla extract and perhaps a little bit more buttermilk. Quite tasty, though, and directions that were VERY easy to follow. I'll be making this one again.

This simple and delicious. I found the chocolate to be fairly light but nice. I used butter and added 1 tsp vanilla and a smidge of almond extract. I used 3/4 cup sugar which made for a slighly sweet bread. Next time I will use more pecans and add mini choc chips. Thanks Sharon for a great recipe. Reviewed by a Chic Chef for ZWT 4 E.

GREAT! I made this with chocolate chips and chopped fresh strawberries and omitted the nuts. It was soooooooo good. It had a nice smooth soft texture and was very chocolaty with the chocolate chips. I LOVED it plain and warm with whipped cream and strawberries and with strawberry butter. Made for the Holiday tag game.

I used 3/4 cup sugar and it was perfect. Not too sweet. I would consider using only 1/2 cup another time. I'm sure it would be nice. I didn't add nuts. The bread is moist and with a nice taste of chocolate. Love it. Thanks Sharon. Made for ZWT4

I am 42 & have been cooking since I was 5 & could stand in a chair to cook, but boy I made a monkey-mess outta this!! The only thng I didn't do was set the kitchen on fire. I didn't have buttermilk so I used powdered milk from the fridge & vinegar & followed the rest of the recipe as written & added 1 tsp vanilla. I used my reg sized loaf pan, but it started over-flowing so I put a tray under to catch the spill. It was a litte dry, but the taste was fine, although I will add choc chips next time for a stronger chocolate flavor. It has more of a cake texture, but mine falls into fine crumbs. One good thing came from it spilling, the batter cooked to a crunchier texture than the loaf & I really liked it better than the bread. I will use the batter to make drop cookies next time. Very versatile, thanks for posting. I also wanted to say that I really appreciate the time everyone takes to review the recipes & how you altered the recipe & how it turned out. I've gotten many great ideas from everyone's input.
