Sour Cream Chocolate Chip Bundt Cake Recipe

Ingredients

  • 2 1/4 cups (317g) cake flour
  • 1 1/4 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp kosher salt
  • 8 tbsp (113g) unsalted butter at room temperature
  • 1 1/2 cups (322g) granulated sugar
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 3 large eggs at room temperature
  • 1 cup (8 oz) sour cream
  • 1/2 cup (118ml) buttermilk
  • 1/2 cup (118ml) vegetable oil
  • 1 1/4 cups mini semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Begin by ensuring that all your ingredients are at room temperature or relatively close.
  2. Preheat the oven to 325°F and place the rack in the middle of it. Get a 10-inch bundt tin (preferably nonstick) and brush some softened butter within it, then thoroughly dust it with flour and tap away any extra amount of flour present.
    In a small mixing bowl, blend together baking powder, baking soda, flour, and salt until they mix nicely together.
  3. Take a large mixing bowl with a hand or stand mixer armed with the paddle attachment and cream the sugar and butter together until they are wholly combined and seem fluffy and white, about 3 minutes.
  4. Beat in one egg and vanilla essence on medium speed. When the egg is completely mixed in, beat in another one and repeat. Scrape the bowl’s bottom and sides to guarantee everything is combined.
  5. Using the mixer on low speed, beat in one-third of the flour mixture, followed by half of the buttermilk mixture. Repeat, and then put the remaining flour and chocolate chips and mix on low speed until the flour’s last streaks vanish.
  6. Pour the batter of chocolate chip coffee cake loaf into the prepared bundt tin and smooth it out evenly. Take a butter knife and make a shallow circle in the mixture around the bundt ring’s center.
  7. Bake for 60 minutes or until the sour cream chocolate chip bundt cake is golden brown on the crown, the center bounces back when gently pressed, and a wooden skewer inserted in the center comes out with only some crumbs.
  8. Let the cake cool in its pan for at least ten minutes. Firmly hold a cooling rack on the tin’s top, and with the help of a kitchen towel or oven mitt, flip both the container and cooling rack simultaneously to invert the cake onto the rack. Lift the tin off and permit the cake to cool thoroughly before slicing and serving.

Tips And Tricks To Bake The Perfect Easy Chocolate Chip Coffee Cake

Baking a moist chocolate chip pound cake can be complicated; however, with these tips, you will be an expert in a short time.

  • Guarantee your ingredients are at room temperature before you commence baking. This will guarantee everything mixes together uniformly and smoothly.
  • Avoid overmixing your mixture. After adding the sour cream and flour mixture, mix until just combined. Overmixing can lead to a tough cake.
  • Lubricate the pan well to inhibit sticking. You can also dust some flour or cocoa powder for additional insurance.
  • Permit your cake to cool in the pan for a minimum of 15 minutes before removing it. This will aid it in holding its shape and stop it from falling apart.
  • Don’t hesitate to get creative with your decorations. Dust the cake with powdered sugar, drizzle chocolate sauce, or top it with fresh blueberries or raspberries.

  • Top the cake with a glaze created from milk and powdered sugar. You can also incorporate a flavor extract to the glaze to take it to the next level.

Serving Suggestions And Storage Tips
