Description
A delightful dessert that blends rich chocolate flavors with the tangy goodness of buttermilk, resulting in a moist and visually impressive cake.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 2 cups granulated sugar
- 4 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup buttermilk
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a bundt pan.
- Cream together softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 3-5 minutes. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each. Stir in vanilla extract.
- In another bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Gradually add dry ingredients to the wet mixture, alternating with buttermilk. Mix until just combined.
- Pour batter into the prepared bundt pan, smoothing the top if needed.
- Bake for 60-70 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. The cake should spring back when touched.
- Cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then invert onto a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or wrap and freeze for up to 3 months. Use room temperature ingredients for better mixing.
