Ingredients

• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 1.5 cups Granulated sugar
• 0.75 cups Unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
• 1.5 teaspoons Baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 1 cups Buttermilk
• 0.5 cups Vegetable oil
• 2 Large eggs
• 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 0.5 cups Kahlua or Amaretto
• 1 cups Boiling water
• 0.25 cups Powdered sugar (for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a bundt pan or use a non-stick baking spray specifically created for bundt pans.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, sift together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract until well combined.

Step 4

Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined.

Step 5

Stir in the Kahlua or Amaretto to the batter, ensuring it is evenly incorporated.

Step 6

Carefully add the boiling water to the batter. Mix gently until the batter is smooth and well combined. (The batter will be thin; this is normal.)

Step 7

Pour the batter into the prepared bundt pan, spreading it evenly.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

Step 9

Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 15-20 minutes. Then, invert the pan onto a wire rack and gently lift it off to release the cake.

Step 10

Allow the cake to cool completely before dusting with powdered sugar for garnish.

Step 11

Serve and enjoy!
