Elegantly simple chocolate Bundt cake infused with coffee and bourbon, perfect for entertaining with its moist and fine texture.
Ingredients:
  • 7 ounces bittersweet chocolate
  • 4 ounces (1 stick) butter (plus more for greasing the pan)
  • 1 3/4 cups of strong coffee
  • 1/4 cup bourbon whisky (if skipping the whisky, just use more coffee)
  • 3/4 teaspoon of salt (if using salted butter, reduce to 1/8 teaspoon of salt)
  • 2 cups all purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 cups sugar
  • 3 Tbsp cocoa for dusting the bundt pan
  • 1 Tbsp powdered sugar for dusting the cake (optional)
Instructions:
  • Prepare for a flavorful bake: Preheat your oven to 275°F. Grease the inside of a 2-quart Bundt pan with butter, then dust with cocoa and tap out any excess.
  • Create a simple double boiler by placing a metal bowl over a saucepan filled with water. Heat chocolate, butter, coffee, bourbon, and salt in the bowl, stirring occasionally until melted and smooth. Remove from heat and cool for 15 minutes before using. Chill for faster cooling if desired.
  • Combine the flour and baking soda in a medium bowl, vigorously whisking until well mixed.
  • Whisk eggs, sugar, and vanilla: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, sugar, and vanilla until light and foamy using a hand mixer or stand mixer.
  • Incorporate the chocolate mixture into the egg-sugar mix gradually, followed by adding the flour mixture in thirds. Whisk until smooth, and don't fret about the batter's thin consistency.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared Bundt pan and bake on the middle rack of the preheated oven for 1 hour 15 minutes, or until a tester inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Allow to cool slightly, then unmold: Cool in the pan on a wire rack for 15 minutes, then gently remove from the pan and continue cooling on a rack until reaching room temperature.
  • Dust with powdered sugar: Move the cake to a serving platter. Dust with powdered sugar. Use a serrated bread knife to slice and serve with whipped cream or ice cream, if desired.
