Insanely Chocolaty Chocolate Bundt Cake Recipes

MOST AMAZING CHOCOLATE BUNDT CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Use butter to grease a 10-12 cup bundt pan well. Dust with a little flour or cocoa powder and tap out the excess.
• Mix together flour, sugar, cocoa, baking soda, baking powder, and salt in a large mixing bowl until combined.
• Add eggs, warm water, buttermilk, sour cream, oil, and vanilla. Use a hand mixer to beat on a medium speed until smooth. This should take just a couple of minutes.
• Pour batter into prepared bundt pan. Tap the pan on the countertop a few times to allow any air bubbles to escape.
• Bake for 45-50 minutes in a 350 degree oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
• Cool on a wire rack for 15 minutes and then turn out onto the racks and allow to cool completely.
• Place roughly chopped chocolate into a mixing bowl. Pour heavy cream into a small saucepan and bring it to a simmer over medium heat.
• Once cream comes to a simmer, remove it from the heat immediately and pour over chocolate. Let stand 5 minutes, until chocolate is completely melted.
• Stir until smooth. Once smooth, stir in corn syrup. Drizzle over the top of the cooled cake.

CHOCOLATE BUNDT CAKE

Steps:

• Make the cake: Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Butter a 14-cup Bundt pan. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa, baking soda, and salt. Mix milk and sour cream in a glass measuring cup.
• With an electric mixer on medium-high speed, beat butter and sugar until pale and fluffy, 3 to 5 minutes. Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating well after each addition; add vanilla. Reduce speed to low; add flour mixture in 2 batches, alternating with the milk mixture and beginning and ending with the flour; beat until just combined.
• Transfer batter to prepared pan; smooth top with an offset spatula. Bake until a cake tester comes out clean, about 55 minutes. Transfer pan to a wire rack to cool completely.
• Make the glaze: Place chocolate in a heatproof bowl. Bring cream to a simmer in a small saucepan; pour over chocolate. Let stand 2 minutes. Add butter, and mix until smooth. Let stand, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened. Pour glaze over cake.

RICH CHOCOLATE BUNDT CAKE

Steps:

• Mix sour cream, oil and eggs on low speed.
• Add dry pudding mix and dry cake mix. Beat at low speed.
• Fold in chocolate chips.
• Generously grease bundt pan and flour.
• Bake at 350° for 1 hour.
• Turn out on rack and cool. Frost if desired.
• Note: I like to apply part of a can of cream cheese frosting while the cake is still warm so it kind of glazes it. Once cooled I use the rest of the frosting. Then I melt a handful or so of chocolate chips in the microwave and use a spoon to drizzle across the cake.
• [Afterthoughts: I tried this with a chocolate cake mix for the fun of it. It became just another chocolate cake rather then the sumptious indulgence we'd come to think of this recipe as. The yellow mix seems to give it a richer flavor in my opinion. Just my 2-cents for your musing.].

INSANELY CHOCOLATEY - CHOCOLATE NEMESIS CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 300°F; line an 8-inch diameter shallow cake pan 2 inches deep with nonstick baking paper, then grease it with butter and sprinkle with flour.
• Beat the eggs with one third of the sugar until the mixture quadruples in volume (this operation will require beating for around 10 minutes with an electric beater). Heat the rest of the sugar in a saucepan with 1 cup water until the sugar dissolves into a syrup.
• Add the chocolate pieces and the butter. Mix well. When smooth, remove from the heat and leave to cool. Pour the mixture over the eggs while it is still slightly warm and continue to beat gently until it is smooth (no more than 20 seconds).
• Pour the mixture into the prepared cake pan and place the pan in a roasting pan of hot water. The water must come right up to the top of the mold, so that the cooking is uniform.
• Bake it for 30 minutes in the oven until it has set. Check for doneness by gently placing the palm of your hand on the surface. If it is not set, continue cooking.
• Cool the cake in the pan before turning upside down to unmold onto a cake plate. Serve with a spoonful of whipped cream some fresh raspberries or just inhale the cake straight off the plate! If you're feeling really crazy for chocolate, top the cake with chocolate curls too ;).

SUPER MOIST CHOCOLATE BUNDT® CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Generously grease a 10-inch fluted tube pan (such as Bundt®), or use a nonstick pan.
• Combine flour, sugar, cocoa powder, pudding mix, baking soda, and salt in a bowl. Add milk, oil, and vanilla extract. Beat with an electric mixer on low speed until combined. Beat on high speed for 2 minutes. Add eggs and beat for 2 minutes more. Add warm water and sour cream; beat until combined. Scrape down sides of the bowl. Stir in chocolate chips and pour batter into the prepared pan.
• Bake in the preheated oven until top is springy to the touch and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 55 to 60 minutes. Remove and let cake cool thoroughly.
