Dry Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
Wet Ingredients
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure it’s ready when your batter is prepared.
- Prepare Bundt Pan: Grease and flour a bundt pan thoroughly to prevent the cake from sticking and to help it release easily after baking.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, sift together the flour and cocoa powder, then stir in the sugar until well combined.
- Add Eggs: Crack the eggs into the dry mixture and mix until smooth and fully incorporated, forming a chocolate cake batter.
- Pour Batter: Pour the batter evenly into the prepared bundt pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
- Bake: Place the bundt pan in the preheated oven and bake for 45-55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Cool: Remove the pan from the oven and allow the cake to cool in the pan for about 15 minutes, then invert it onto a wire rack to cool completely before serving.
Notes
- Ensure the bundt pan is properly greased and floured to avoid sticking.
- Do not overmix the batter to keep the cake tender.
- Allow cake to cool completely for cleaner slices.
- Optional: dust with powdered sugar or drizzle with chocolate glaze before serving.
