Moist and Indulgent Chocolate Bundt Cake

This above cake was baked long time ago in 2019, a day before my birthday. I was planning to bake chocolate cake for my own birthday, something that I can indulge without feeling guilty (guilty from buying dessert that I don’t know what it tastes like not from the calories !). A cake that moist

This recipe looks similar from what I am looking for but unfortunately has bad reviews. Readers said the cake is disappointing such as dry, not sweet enough. To solve this I add extra sour cream and dark chocolate chips also reducing baking time I was  so glad that the cake turned out to be moist and rich from chocolate chips. Yeay… I made it

 

 

 

I did not use the glaze as I just want to have simple chocolate cake. I find that this cake tastes rich from the chocolate chips so I thought adding powdered sugar just for aesthetically purpose.

I use mini bundt cake pans so it will be easy to share with companions. Let’s get started !
