1/2 c. (1 stick) butter or margarine, room temp
1 1/4 c. sugar, divided
2 eggs
1 c. sour cream
1 t. vanilla extract
2 c. flour
1 1/2 t. baking powder
1 t. baking soda
1/4 t. salt
2-3 T. milk
1/2 t. cinnamon

Preheat oven to 350. In a mixing bowl, combine butter or margarine, 1 c. sugar and eggs. Beat until light and fluffy. Add sour cream and vanilla; blend thoroughly on low. In another bowl, combine flour, baking powder and soda, and salt. Add gradually to beaten mixture. Add milk as needed to thin batter to spread in pan more easily. Pour half of batter into greased 9x13 baking pan. In a small bowl, combine the remaining sugar and the cinnamon. Sprinkle half of the sugar-cinnamon mixture and half of the chocolate chips over the batter. Pour the remaining batter into the pan and sprinkle with remaining sugar-cinnamon mixture and chocolate chips. Bake at 350 for 30 - 35 minutes.
