Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 cups granulated sugar
• 0.75 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1.5 teaspoons baking powder
• 1.5 teaspoons baking soda
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 2 large eggs
• 1 cup buttermilk
• 0.5 cup vegetable oil
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 1 cup boiling water
• 4 ounces chopped semi-sweet chocolate
• 0.5 cup heavy cream
• 2 tablespoons powdered sugar (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 10-inch bundt pan thoroughly to prevent sticking.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until evenly combined.

Step 3

In another bowl, mix the eggs, buttermilk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until a smooth batter forms.

Step 4

Slowly pour in the boiling water while stirring. The batter will be thin, but this will ensure a moist cake. Stir until fully incorporated.

Step 5

Pour the batter into the prepared bundt pan and smooth the top with a spatula. Tap the pan lightly on the counter to release any air bubbles.

Step 6

Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.

Step 7

While the cake bakes, prepare the chocolate glaze. Heat the heavy cream in a small saucepan over medium heat until it begins to simmer. Remove it from heat and pour it over the chopped chocolate in a heatproof bowl. Let sit for 1-2 minutes, then stir until smooth and glossy.

Step 8

Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes, then carefully invert it onto a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 9

Once the cake has cooled, drizzle the chocolate glaze evenly over the top and down the sides of the cake.

Step 10

Optional: Sprinkle powdered sugar over the cake for garnish before serving.

Step 11

Slice and enjoy this decadent chocolate fudge bundt cake with a cup of coffee or a scoop of vanilla ice cream!
