Ingredients:

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 cups granulated sugar
• ¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1½ teaspoons baking powder
• 1½ teaspoons baking soda
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 2 large eggs
• 1 cup whole milk
• ½ cup vegetable oil
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 1 cup boiling water

Optional Chocolate Glaze:

• 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
• ½ cup heavy cream

Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven:
   • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 10- to 12-cup Bundt pan.
2. Mix Dry Ingredients:
   • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
3. Add Wet Ingredients:
   • Add the eggs, milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Mix on medium speed for about 2 minutes until well combined.
4. Add Boiling Water:
   • Carefully stir in the boiling water. The batter will be thin, but this is normal!
5. Pour into Bundt Pan:
   • Pour the batter into the prepared Bundt pan, filling it about two-thirds full.
6. Bake:
   • Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
7. Cool:
   • Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10-15 minutes. Then, invert the cake onto a wire rack to cool completely.
8. Optional Chocolate Glaze:
   • To make the chocolate glaze, heat the heavy cream in a small saucepan over medium heat until it just begins to simmer. Remove from heat and add the chocolate chips. Let sit for a minute, then stir until smooth.
   • Drizzle the glaze over the cooled Bundt cake.

Tips:

• Serving Suggestions: This cake is delicious on its own, but you can also serve it with whipped cream, fresh berries, or ice cream for an extra treat.
• Storage: Keep leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for up to a week.

Enjoy your indulgent Chocolate Bundt Cake!
