Ingredients
- 2 cups (240g) all-purpose flour
- 3/4 cup (75g) unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 1/2 cups (300g) granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup (115g) unsalted butter, melted
- 4 oz (115g) dark chocolate, chopped and melted
- 1 cup (175g) milk chocolate chips
- 3 large eggs, room temperature
- 1 cup (240ml) whole milk
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup (120ml) heavy cream
- 4 oz (115g) additional dark chocolate, chopped for ganache
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and dust a 10-12 cup bundt pan with cocoa powder.
- In a large bowl, sift together flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Whisk to combine.
- In another bowl, whisk sugar and eggs until pale and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add melted butter, melted dark chocolate, milk, and vanilla extract. Mix gently.
- Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients and fold gently until just combined.
- Fold in milk chocolate chips evenly throughout the batter.
- Pour batter into prepared bundt pan and smooth the top. Tap pan gently to release air bubbles.
- Bake for 45-50 minutes, checking at 40 minutes with a toothpick; it should come out with moist crumbs but no wet batter.
- Cool cake in pan for 15 minutes, then invert onto a cooling rack.
- Heat heavy cream until steaming but not boiling. Pour over chopped dark chocolate and let sit for 3 minutes. Stir until smooth.
- Once cake is fully cooled, drizzle ganache evenly over the top. Let set for 20 minutes before slicing.
Notes
Grease and dust the bundt pan with cocoa powder to prevent sticking. Use room temperature eggs and milk for better mixing. Melt chocolate gently to avoid burning. Start checking cake doneness at 40 minutes to prevent overbaking. Let cake cool before adding ganache to avoid sliding. For gluten-free, substitute flour with gluten-free blend and ensure baking powder is gluten-free. For dairy-free, use coconut cream and dairy-free chocolate alternatives.
