What is so special about a bundt cake?

When we talk about Bundt cakes they are not in reference to a single recipe, but to the specific character and shape of the pan. A typical Bundt pan has grooved or fluted sides, and the most defining characteristic is the hole through the center of the cake. There are Bundt pans out there that have more creative features too, some pans have a mountain range shape, there are castle style pans, floral, swirls, really there are so many unique and creative styles the possibilities of cakes are endless.

How long does it take a Bundt cake to cool?

You will want your Bundt cake to cool completely before frosting, that means you will need to remove it from the pan. But wait about 10-20 minutes before removing it from the pan after baking, you want to give it time to set and cool. If you remove from the pan too early you risk the bundt cake breaking apart. Once the cake is removed from the pan you should let it cool for about 10-20 minutes before adding frosting or toppings.

How to prevent cakes from sticking to the pan:

Make sure to grease the inside of your cake pan well and then add in a dusting of flour to help as well. For chocolate-based cakes, using cocoa powder instead of flour works well but flour is best for the lighter colored cakes. You can also use a nonstick baking spray with flour in the mix to make it a little easier as well but I’ve found that manually adding grease + flour works best as the spray doesn’t always help cakes to come out flawlessly.

Ingredients

Cake:

2 sticks unsalted butter room temp
1 ½ cups granulated sugar
2 large Eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
½ cup sour cream or plain Greek yogurt
1 cup hot water
2 cups all-purpose flour
½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 teaspoons salt
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup (milk or semi-sweet) chocolate chips mixed with 1 teaspoon of flour

Peanut Butter Glaze:

1 cup powdered sugar
1 tablespoon melted butter
¼ cup plain smooth peanut butter
3-4 tablespoons milk
⅛ teaspoon salt

Instructions

Prep: Start by preheating the oven to 350degrees F. Then, grease the inside of the bundt cake pan well with oil and flour, to prevent the cake from sticking.
Cake batter: In the bowl of a stand mixer or in a large mixing bowl, combine the room temperature butter with the granulated sugar and cream together for 5 minutes.
Next, beat in the eggs, one at a time, until incorporated. Then, mix in the vanilla extract and the sour cream. Now mix in the hot water and stir to combine.
In a separate small bowl, sift together the flour, salt, baking powder, and baking soda. Proceed to stir the dry ingredients into the wet batter and mix together until just combined. Be careful not overmix.
In another small bowl, toss the chocolate chips with a teaspoon of flour. This will prevent them from sinking to the bottom of the pan as the cake bakes.
Bake: After that, pour the cake batter into the prepared bundt pan and bake in the preheated oven for 50-55 minutes or until a toothpick can be inserted and come out clean. Be careful not to overbake this cake or else it will be dry. Allow it to cool slightly before releasing from the pan.
Glaze: In a medium size bowl, combine the powdered sugar, melted butter, peanut butter, milk, and salt, whisk together until smooth. If needed, add in another tablespoon of milk if the glaze is too thick.
Proceed to pour the glaze over the top of the cooled cake, allow it to set before slicing and serving. Slice, serve and enjoy!

Why is my cake so dense?

This can happen if you don’t cream the butter and sugar enough before adding the eggs. Make sure the mixture has turned a light, almost white color before moving on to the next step. It is also important to scrape down the bowl to ensure that everything is uniformly mixed.

Another possibility could be that your baking powder or baking soda has expired. These both cause the cake to rise, so any problem with them will create a really dense cake.
