Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 0.75 cup Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 2 cups Granulated sugar
- 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Baking soda
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 3 large Eggs
- 1.25 cups Whole milk
- 0.5 cup Vegetable oil
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 1 cup Boiling water
- 1 cup Semisweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup Heavy cream
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 10-cup bundt pan thoroughly.
In a large mixing bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Slowly incorporate the boiling water into the batter, mixing until smooth. The batter will be thin, which is normal.
Pour the batter evenly into the prepared bundt pan.
Bake for 40 to 45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 15 minutes, then invert it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
For the chocolate glaze, heat the heavy cream until just boiling and pour it over the chocolate chips in a small bowl.
Let the mixture sit for 2 minutes to melt the chocolate, then whisk until smooth and glossy.
Once the cake is completely cool, drizzle the chocolate glaze evenly over the cake, allowing it to drizzle down the sides.
Let the glaze set for a few minutes before slicing the cake. Serve and enjoy!
