Ingredients

  • 3 eggs (medium, at room temperature)
  • 3/4 cup + 2 tbsp granulated sugar
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 1/2 cup sunflower oil
  • 1/2 cup + 1 tbsp milk (at room temperature)
  • 1 3/4 cups + 1 tbsp all-purpose flour (00 flour)
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 sachet baking powder
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon

FOR THE CHOCOLATE BUNDT CAKE YOU WILL NEED

  • 1 Bundt pan 10 in (25 cm)
  • 1 Bowl
  • Electric beaters
  • 1 Sieve
  • 1 Measuring cup

PREPARATION – CHOCOLATE BUNDT CAKE

  • Preparing the CHOCOLATE BUNDT CAKE is child’s play.
    In a bowl place the eggs, the sugar and a pinch of salt. Beat everything with electric beaters for 10 minutes until you obtain a pale, frothy mixture.
    Add the liquids: oil and milk, and incorporate them well.

  • Add the flour sifted together with the baking powder and the cocoa, and mix at low speed until the batter is smooth and homogeneous.
    Finally, add the cinnamon. Butter and flour (or dust with unsweetened cocoa) a 9.5–10 in (24–25 cm) bundt pan, and pour in the batter.

  • Bake the chocolate bundt cake in a preheated, static oven at 356°F and bake for about 35 minutes. Before removing from the oven always perform the toothpick test: once inserted into the center of the cake it should come out dry.
    Remove from the oven, let cool completely, then unmold your chocolate bundt cake and serve dusted generously with powdered sugar or covered with a chocolate glaze.

STORAGE

Store the chocolate bundt cake at room temperature under a glass dome to prevent it from drying out too much when exposed to air.
