Ingredients

• 1 cup unsalted butter
• 2 cups granulated sugar
• 4 eggs
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 2.5 cups all-purpose flour
• 0.75 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup sour cream
• 0.75 cup boiling water
• 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 1 cup powdered sugar
• 0.25 cup unsweetened cocoa powder (for glaze)
• 4 tablespoons milk
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (for glaze)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease and flour a bundt cake pan to ensure easy release after baking.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes.

Step 3

Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

Step 5

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, alternating with the sour cream, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.

Step 6

Slowly stir in the boiling water until the batter is smooth and glossy. Be careful not to overmix.

Step 7

Fold in the chocolate chips gently with a spatula.

Step 8

Pour the batter into the prepared bundt pan and smooth the top with a spatula.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 50 to 55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 10

Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 15 minutes before carefully inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 11

To make the glaze, whisk together the powdered sugar, cocoa powder, milk, and vanilla extract in a bowl until smooth and pourable.

Step 12

Drizzle the glaze over the cooled bundt cake, letting it cascade down the sides for a decorative effect.

Step 13

Let the glaze set for about 10 minutes, then slice and serve. Enjoy!
