Description
A rich and moist Chocolate Fudge Bundt Cake filled with a creamy center and topped with a luscious chocolate ganache.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup unsalted butter (softened)
- 1 ¾ cups granulated sugar
- 4 large eggs (room temperature)
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- ¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 2 tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp salt
- 1 cup buttermilk (or milk + 1 tsp vinegar)
- 1 cup hot coffee (or hot water for milder flavor)
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 8 oz cream cheese (softened)
- ½ cup powdered sugar
- 1 large egg (for cream filling)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract (for cream filling)
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- ½ cup heavy cream
- 1 Tbsp butter (for shine)
- Chocolate sprinkles (for topping)
Instructions
- Beat cream cheese, powdered sugar, egg, and vanilla until smooth. Set aside in a small bowl.
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a Bundt pan. In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each. Stir in vanilla.
- In another bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Alternate adding dry ingredients with buttermilk, mixing until combined. Stir in hot coffee until smooth (batter will be thin).
- Pour half of the cake batter into the Bundt pan. Spoon cream filling in the center, avoiding edges. Pour remaining cake batter over the filling to cover.
- Bake for 50–60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted (not into the cream filling) comes out clean. Let cool in the pan for 15 minutes before inverting onto a wire rack.
- Heat cream until steaming, then pour over chocolate chips. Stir until smooth, then add butter for shine. Pour ganache over the cooled cake. Top with chocolate sprinkles.
Notes
- Ensure all ingredients are at room temperature for best results.
- For a milder flavor, use hot water instead of coffee.
- Let the cake cool completely before adding the ganache to prevent it from melting.
