Ingredients
Chocolate Cake
- 2 cups cake flour or all-purpose Flour
- 1 1/3 cups dutch cocoa powder or regular
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup 2 sticks unsalted Butter (room temperature)
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 3/4 cup brown sugar
- 3 large eggs room temperature
- 1 cup buttermilk room temperature
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 1 cup Greek yogurt full-fat
- 1 tablespoon Espresso Instant Coffee Powder
- 3 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 3/4 cup mini chocolate chips plus more to garnish
Chocolate Ganache Glaze
- 1 1/2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 3/4 cup heavy whipping cream
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
Chocolate Cake
- Preheat oven to 350°F, and position a rack in the lower than center part of the oven. Grease a bundt pan with soft butter and coat with cocoa powder, or with flour. Set aside.
- Bowl One: Sift together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt into a medium size bowl.
- Mixer Bowl Two: In a separate mixing bowl beat together the butter, sugar and brown sugar with the paddle attachment (if available) until light and fluffy, scraping the bowl to incorporate the butter.
- Add in the room temperature eggs one at a time, mixing after each egg.
- Bowl Three: In a separate medium size bowl whisk the buttermilk, oil, Greek yogurt,
- instant coffee powder and vanilla together in a separate container, until creamy smooth.
- Set aside.
- With the mixer (Bowl Two) on low speed, add dry ingredients in thirds, scraping the bowl each time.
- Add wet ingredients (Bowl Three) in thirds, and do not over mix. When incorporated, stir in mini chocolate chips.
- Spoon the batter into prepared bundt pan, and bump lightly on a wood surface to even the batter and remove air bubbles.
- Bake for 45-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the cake comes out clean, or with just a few crumbs. Check at 45 minutes to ensure you don’t over bake.
- When done, remove from oven and allow the bundt cake to cool in pan on a wire baking rack for 15 minutes. Remove cake from pan by inverting it onto a cake plate, and allow to cool completely, about an hour.
Chocolate Ganache Glaze
- Place the chocolate chips and heavy cream in a microwave safe bowl, and melt them in 20 second bursts, stirring well each time. When most of the chocolate has melted, stir until smooth. It should only require a minute or two. Add vanilla and stir until smooth.
- Allow the glaze to cool until it thickens somewhat, so it pours and runs slowly. Pour it over the bundt cake allowing it to drip down the sides slightly. Sprinkle with mini chocolate chips if desired.
- Slice and serve at room temperature.
Notes
- For round cake pans you can use two 8 or 9-inch pans instead of the bundt pan. Bake for 25-30 minutes our until a toothpick comes out clean (or with little crumbs).
