This recipe is from Tast of Home, I've made a lot of chocolate bundts from a cake mix but I wanted one that was from scratch. It almost like a chocolate pound cake. Ingredients:
1 cup butter, softened |
3 cups sugar |
6 eggs |
1 1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract |
1/2 teaspoon almond extract |
2 1/2 cups flour |
1/2 cup baking cocoa |
1/4 teaspoon baking soda |
1 cup sour cream (8 oz container) |
2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips |
2/3 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips |
1/3 cup heavy whipping cream |
1/4 cup butter, cut into cubes |
1 cup confectioners' sugar |
1/4 teaspoon almond extract |
1/4 cup chopped almonds |
Directions:
1. In large bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
2. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each one.
3. Stir in extracts.
4. Combine the flour, cocoa and baking soda in a small bowl, add to creamed mixture alternately with sour cream.
5. Beat just until combined, do not over mix.
6. Stir in chocolate chips.
7. Pour into a well greased and floured 10 inch tube pan.
8. Bake at 325 for 75-90 minutes or until cake tester inserted near the center comes out clean.
9. Cool for ten minutes before removing from pan to a wire rack to cool completely.
10. Run a metal spatula or butter knife around sides of pan to loosen cake first.
11. Combine the chocolate chips, cream and butter in a saucepan.
12. Cook; stir constantly over low heat until smooth.
13. Cool slightly.
