  • 1 tablespoon butter (for shine)


Instructions

  1. Prepare the Pan and Oven

    • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

    • Grease a Bundt pan thoroughly with butter or non-stick spray, then dust it lightly with cocoa powder to prevent sticking.

  2. Make the Batter

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

    • Add sugar and whisk to combine the dry ingredients evenly.

    • In another bowl, whisk together buttermilk, oil, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth.

    • Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry mixture, stirring until well combined.

    • Carefully add the hot coffee and mix until smooth and slightly thin — this step enhances the chocolate flavor and ensures moisture.

    • If desired, fold in chocolate chips for extra gooey richness.

  3. Bake the Cake

    • Pour the batter into the prepared Bundt pan.

    • Tap the pan gently on the counter to release any air bubbles.

    • Bake for 45–55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

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

  4. Prepare the Chocolate Glaze

    • Heat the heavy cream in a small saucepan until it begins to simmer (do not boil).

    • Remove from heat and pour over the chocolate chips in a bowl. Let sit for 1 minute.

    • Add butter and whisk until smooth and glossy.

    • Allow the glaze to cool slightly until it thickens enough to pour.

  5. Glaze and Serve

    • Place the cooled cake on a serving plate.

    • Pour the warm chocolate glaze over the top, letting it drip down the sides beautifully.

    • Slice and serve — each piece will reveal a moist, rich crumb and luscious chocolate coating.


Serving Suggestions

This cake pairs wonderfully with a dusting of powdered sugar or a scoop of vanilla ice cream. For an elegant touch, garnish with fresh berries or a dollop of whipped cream.
