A straightforward, moist chocolate chip bundt cake recipe designed for reliable results, perfect for busy home cooks. This recipe focuses on simple steps and accessible ingredients for a delicious homemade ring cake.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
  • 1 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 1 1/2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 cup powdered sugar (for glaze)
  • 2 tablespoons milk or cream (for glaze)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare a 10-cup bundt pan by thoroughly greasing it with butter or baking spray, then dusting it completely with flour. Tap out any excess flour. This step is key for easy release.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 3 minutes.
  3. Beat in the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
  4. In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the buttermilk, beginning and ending with the flour mixture. Mix only until just combined; do not overmix.
  6. Gently fold in the chocolate chips using a spatula.
  7. Spoon the batter evenly into the prepared bundt pan.
  8. Bake for 55 to 65 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted near the center comes out clean. Baking time can vary based on your oven and pan material.
  9. Let the cake cool in the pan on a wire rack for 15 minutes.
  10. After 15 minutes, carefully invert the cake onto the wire rack to cool completely.
  11. While the cake cools, prepare the simple glaze: Whisk together the powdered sugar and milk or cream until smooth. Add more liquid, a teaspoon at a time, if needed to reach a drizzling consistency.
  12. Once the cake is completely cool, drizzle the glaze over the top. Slice and serve this moist chocolate chip dessert.

Notes

  • For best results in a bundt pan, use a baking spray that contains flour, or use softened butter followed by a generous coating of flour.
  • To ensure even baking, make sure your butter and eggs are at room temperature before starting.
  • If you prefer a richer topping, substitute the simple glaze with a chocolate ganache made from 1/2 cup heavy cream heated and poured over 4 ounces of chopped chocolate.
