Chocolate Chip Bundt Cake

This cake is like a giant chocolate chip cookie. The outside developed a nice crust and the inside is speckled with chocolate chips. It’s not too sweet and could only be improved with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or fresh whipped cream. It’s the type of dessert that I love!

Tips:

  • I never buy buttermilk. Mix 1 cup of milk + 1 tablespoon of white vinegar or lemon juice. Let it sit for five minutes and it will curdle.

  • If you want to make this nut-free, omit the first step with pecans.

  • I dusted our cake with powdered sugar, which was pretty.

  • Take your ingredients out earlier to bring them to room temperature.
