For the topping:
2/3 cup chopped pecans
1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened and cut into small pieces
2 tablespoons granulated sugar

For the cake:
2 & 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 cup packed dark brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
4 large eggs
1 cup buttermilk
12 ounces semisweet chocolate mini chips

To make the topping:
Preheat oven to 350. Grease and flour a 12-cup Bundt pan. Stir pecans, butter, and sugar together with a fork. Sprinkle mixture in bottom of prepared pan.

To make the cake:
Whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.

Using an electric mixer on medium speed, beat
butter, brown sugar, granulated sugar, and vanilla until fluffy (3-5 minutes). Add eggs, one at a time, beating just until blended after each addition.

Add flour mixture, alternating with buttermilk. Begin and end with flour mixture. Reduce mixer speed to low and beat just until blended. Mix in chocolate chips. Transfer batter to prepared pan.

Bake 50-55 minutes, or until a cake tester inserted into the center comes out clean.
Cool in pan on wire rack for 10 minutes. Remove from pan to cool completely on wire rack.
