Basically, all the hot chocolate flavours turned into a cake. A vanilla bundt cake, spiced with hot chocolate instead of regular milk, poured in chocolate ganache and serve with whipped cream. A winter drink-like cake.

Ingredients
- 345gr all-purpose flour
- 2tsp baking powder
- 1tsp baking soda
- 1/2tsp salt
- 225gr butter (room temperature)
- 400gr sugar
- 4 large eggs
- 240ml chocolate milk
- Vanilla
Chocolate ganache
- 200gr dark chocolate
- 300ml cream
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 170C
- Cream together your butter and sugar at high speed for about 8-10 minutes until pale and fluffy, scrape down the sides of your bowl about halfway
- Incorporate your eggs one at a time until the whole mixture is emulsified. Add a splash of vanilla
- In a medium bowl, whisk together your baking soda, powder, flour & salt
- Add the ⅓ of your flour and let that mix in, then alternate with ⅓ of your chocolate milk and continue until all your ingredients are incorporated
- Liberally butter a bundt cake pan, and I really mean liberally!! We don’t want that cake to stick to the pan
- Bake for 50 minutes to an hour or until a toothpick comes out clean. After it comes out of the oven, let it cool for 5-10 minutes and immediately transfer to a wire rack. Place the wire rack on top of the bundt cake pan and confidently flip it over (use kitchen towels if the pan is still too hot)
- For the chocolate ganache, heat your cream over medium-low heat in a sauce pan
- Pour the hot cream over your chocolate and let it sit for a minute, then stir until it becomes a smooth mix
- Pour the chocolate ganache over your chilled cake, serve with whipped cream or a good scoop of ice cream and enjoy!
