Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon instant coffee granules
- 1/4 cup hot water
- 1 1/3 cup buttermilk
- 1 1/2 cups butter room temperature
- 2 cups granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 8 oz chocolate melted and lightly cooled
- 5 large eggs room temperature
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup chocolate chips
Garnish:
- Powdered sugar or chocolate ganache
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 325°F.
- Coat a 10 or 12-cup bundt pan with baking spray. Set aside.
- In a medium bowl, mix the coffee granules into the hot water, and stir to dissolve. Once dissolved, stir in the buttermilk and melted chocolate. Set aside.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, mix the butter and sugars on medium speed until light and fluffy, this will take about 4-5 minutes,
- Add in the eggs one at a time, mixing just until combined. Stop to scrape the sides and bottom of the bowl a few times. Next, add in the vanilla extract, salt, baking powder, and cocoa powder, and mix just until combined and the batter is smooth.
- Turn the mixer to low speed and add in the flour and buttermilk mixture alternating both, start and finish with the flour. Stop to scrape the sides and bottom of the bowl a few times and do not overmix.
- Using a rubber spatula stir in the chocolate chips.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Bake for 60 – 70 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or with just a few crumbs, not raw batter.
- Remove from the oven once done and let the cake cool in the pan for 15-20 minutes, then loosen the cake from the sides of the pan using a butter knife. Invert onto a wire rack and let it cool completely.
- Once cooled, dust with powdered sugar or top with chocolate ganache and serve.
