Moist And Delicious Chocolate Bundt Cake Recipe

I was in the mood for baking and I remembered my new bundt cake pan. I’ve only used it once so far and I decided to make a chocolate bundt cake recipe today! Easy chocolate cake recipes like this one are so decadent and moist.

I love making a simple vanilla glaze for my chocolate bundt cake recipe. Vanilla glaze only needs 4 simple ingredients and tops the cake perfectly. All you need for the glaze is 2 cups powdered sugar and 2 tbsp softened butter. I also like to add 1 tsp vanilla powder and 4 tbsp whole milk.

To make the glaze simply combine the ingredients and whisk vigorously until they are thoroughly combined. It can be extremely helpful to sift the powdered sugar before whisking. That’s because clumping is very common especially if it has been stagnant for a while. This method will give you the best glaze for easy chocolate cake recipes like this one.

I adore this easy decadent cake this time of year.

Another fun ingredient for this chocolate bundt cake recipe is instant coffee grounds. It adds a rustic earthy flavor that amplifies the chocolate and sugar. Other ingredients for the bundt cake include flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and a pinch of salt.

You will also need baking soda, unsweetened cocoa powder, and mini chocolate chips. More ingredients for this easy chocolate cake recipe include cinnamon, nutmeg, vanilla extract, and eggs. Don’t forget the vegetable oil, melted butter, whole milk, and water.

In order to make the perfect chocolate bundt cake recipe first preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 10 inch bundt cake pan with melted butter or oil and set it aside. Mix the ingredients in a large mixing bowl before pouring it in the pan. Bake your easy chocolate cake for 45 minutes!
