Ingredients:

For the cake:

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 3/4 cups granulated sugar
  • 3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 cup boiling water

For the ganache glaze:

  • 6 ounces semisweet chocolate, chopped
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 10-inch Bundt pan, ensuring all crevices are well coated.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Avoid overmixing.
  5. Gradually add the boiling water to the batter, stirring gently until the batter is smooth. The batter will be thin, but that's okay.
  6. Pour the batter into the prepared Bundt pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
  7. Bake the cake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  8. Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then, carefully invert the cake onto a wire rack and remove the pan. Let the cake cool completely.
  9. While the cake is cooling, prepare the ganache glaze. In a heatproof bowl, combine the chopped semisweet chocolate, heavy cream, and butter.
  10. Microwave the mixture in 30-second intervals, stirring after each interval, until the chocolate is melted and the mixture is smooth. Alternatively, you can melt the ingredients together over a double boiler.
  11. Stir in the vanilla extract until well incorporated.
  12. Once the cake is completely cooled, place it on a serving platter or cake stand. Drizzle the ganache glaze over the top of the cake, allowing it to drip down the sides.
  13. Let the ganache set for a few minutes before slicing and serving the amazing chocolate Bundt cake.
