FUDGE BUNDT CAKE RECIPES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease and flour a 10-inch bundt pan.
• In the bowl of a stand mixer, beat all cake ingredients until well blended. Spoon batter (it will be thick) into prepared pan.
• Bake for 50 minutes to 1 hour. Cool for 10-15 minutes in the pan before turning out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
• Meanwhile, make the ganache: Place chopped chocolate in a medium bowl. Heat cream in a small saucepan over medium heat until bubbles just begin to form around the edges.
• Pour hot cream over chocolate and let stand for 3-5 minutes. Whisk until chocolate is smooth and shiny.
• Pour ganache over cooled cake. Sprinkle with crushed peppermint candy.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray metal Bundt pan with baking spray.
• In a large bowl beat cake mix, 1 cup water, eggs, 1/3 cup oil and pudding mix with handheld mixer on low speed for 30 seconds. Beat on medium speed 2 minutes. Batter will be thick. In a small bowl, stir together remaining 1 tablespoon water, cocoa packet, and remaining 1 tablespoon oil until well combined.
• Spoon batter evenly into Bundt pan, then spoon cocoa mixture on top of batter and swirl together with butter knife or toothpick. Bake 40 to 45 minutes or until toothpick inserted into cake comes out clean. Remove from oven and cool in pan on wire rack for 10 minutes, then invert pan and remove cake, allowing to cool completely on wire rack.
• In a small microwave-safe bowl, heat heavy cream on HIGH 30 to 40 seconds or until hot. Add chocolate chips and stir to coat, then cover bowl with plastic wrap and allow to sit 5 minutes. Using a wire whisk, blend mixture together until smooth. Allow to cool until slightly thickened.
• Place Bundt cake on serving plate or cake stand. Slowly pour ganache around top of cake and drizzle down sides. Slice and serve.
