Ingredients

• 2.5 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 cups granulated sugar
• 0.75 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1.5 teaspoons baking soda
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 3 large eggs
• 1 cup buttermilk
• 0.5 cup canola oil
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 1 cup boiling water
• 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
• 0.5 cup crushed pretzels
• 0.5 cup toffee bits
• 0.5 cup chopped walnuts or pecans
• 0 powdered sugar (for dusting, optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a Bundt pan or spray it with non-stick baking spray.

Step 2

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

Step 3

In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, buttermilk, canola oil, and vanilla extract.

Step 4

Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until a thick, smooth batter forms.

Step 5

Carefully pour in the boiling water, a little at a time, while mixing. The batter will thin out—this is normal. Mix until well combined.

Step 6

Fold in the chocolate chips, crushed pretzels, toffee bits, and chopped nuts.

Step 7

Pour the batter evenly into the prepared Bundt pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.

Step 8

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

Step 9

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

Step 10

Once cooled, dust the top with powdered sugar for decoration, if desired. Slice and serve!
