How To Make chocoholics dream cake

  • Step 1
    Mix all ingredients except nuts and chips on low until well blended. Beat 2 minutes on high.
  • Step 2
    Add nuts and chips.
  • Step 3
    Pour into greased and floured bundt pan. Bake at 350 for 55-65 minutes. ( Check at 45 - 50 minutes. Mine was done at 50 minutes.
  • Step 4
    Cool cake 10 minutes then turn out onto platter.
  • Step 5
    Glaze preparation: Combine milk and sugar in a small saucepan and heat over low heat until sugar is melted and mixture is warm.
  • Step 6
    Combine the chocolate and corn syrup in a medium mixing bowl and set aside.
  • Step 7
    When the milk and sugar mixture is melted and warm, pour it over the chocolate and corn syrup. Let it sit for a minute to heat the chocolate, then whisk until smooth.
  • Step 8
    Let it cool just slightly to thicken a little bit, then slowly pour it over the cooled cake. Garnishing with nuts is up to you. I think they looked nice against all of that chocolate.
  • Step 9
    The cake is very moist, and very rich. I would slice smaller pieces to serve. Enjoy!
