double chocolate bundt cake
There is no comparing this to a Bundt cake made with a mix. Only a from-scratch cake could be this moist and rich. This mocha glaze is an indulgence; you can also sprinkle the cake with confectioners' sugar, if you like. This one is from Good Housekeeping.

Step 1Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease 12-cup Bundt pan. On sheet of waxed paper, stir together flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.

Step 2Increase speed to high; beat until creamy, about 2 minutes. Reduce speed to low; beat in cocoa mixture, chocolate, and vanilla. Add flour mixture alternately with buttermilk, beginning and ending with flour mixture. Beat just until combined, scraping bowl occasionally with rubber spatula.

Step 3Pour batter into prepared plan. Bake 45 minutes, or until toothpick inserted in center of cake comes out clean. Cool in pan on wire rack 10 minutes. With small knife, loosen cake from side of pan; invert onto wire rack. Cool completely. Meanwhile, prepare Mocha Glaze. Place cake on cake plate; pour glaze over top of cooled cake, letting it run down sides. Allow glaze to set before serving.
