Description

Rich, moist chocolate bundt cake filled with a creamy filling and topped with a smooth ganache glaze. Perfect for any celebration!

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 cup hot water
  • 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream
  • 6 ounces semisweet chocolate, chopped
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 2 tablespoons butter

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch bundt cake pan.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
  3. In another bowl, mix the sugar, oil, eggs, buttermilk, and vanilla extract until smooth. Gradually add this mixture to the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined.
  4. Pour in the hot water and stir until the batter is smooth. Pour the batter into the prepared bundt pan.
  5. Bake for 40-45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
  6. In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until light and fluffy. Gradually add the powdered sugar, alternating with heavy cream, and mix until smooth. Stir in the vanilla extract.
  7. Once the cake is cooled, use a long skewer or knife to create small holes throughout the top of the cake. Spoon the cream cheese filling into the holes, allowing it to seep into the cake layers.
  8. In a heatproof bowl, combine the chopped chocolate and heavy cream. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring after each, until the chocolate is melted and smooth. Add the butter and stir until fully incorporated.
  9. Pour the warm ganache over the top of the cake, allowing it to drip down the sides. Dust the top with powdered sugar for a finishing touch.
  10. Slice and serve immediately, or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.

Notes

Serve at room temperature. Pairs well with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
