I got this recipe from April 2007 Cooking Light magazine. It was a category finalist (desserts) and was submitted by Anna Ginsberg of Austin, TX. It produces a very light bundt cake infused with Irish cream, and it isn't as fattening as many cakes out there!
Ingredients:
1/4 cup semi-sweet hershey's chipits- small chocolate chip
1 teaspoon cake flour
2 3/4 cups cake flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup fat free cream cheese, softened
10 tablespoons butter, softened
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup packed brown sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 large eggs
3/4 cup irish cream
2 tablespoons powdered sugar
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
2. Combine chocolate chips and 1 teaspoon cake flour in a small bowl, toss. Set aside.
3. Lightly spoon 2 3/4 cups cake flour into dry measuring cups; level with a knife. Sift together flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
4. Place Cream cheese and butter in large bowl; beat with a mixer at high speed to blend. Add sugars and vanilla; beat until well blended.
5. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. With mixer on low, add flour mixture and liqueur alternatively to sugar mixture beginning and ending with flour mixture; beat well after each addition. Fold chocolate chips. POur batter in a 12 cup bundt pan coated with baking spray.
6. Bake for 55 minutes or until a wooden pick inserted in center comers out clean.
