Chocolate Chip Bundt Cake
My family might need a good therapist.
We have our problems like everyone, but when I make desserts it’s like world war breaks out over who gets the biggest piece & who gets to claim the last piece. This bundt cake was no different than most desserts I make. We all have a sweet tooth & we all want the most. It’s a real problem we are going to have to deal with.
But this cake has no problems on it’s own. It’s perfectly moist & delicious. It can’t help it that people fight over it & with simple whole food ingredients a little indulgence won’t hurt anyone!
Chocolate Chip Bundt Cake
INGREDIENTS
for the cake:
3/4 cup coconut flour
3/4 cup light coconut milk
1/2 cup dark chocolate chips
1/2 cup maple syrup
1/4 cup tapioca flour
1/4 cup almond flour
1/4 cup ghee, melted (measure after melting)
4 eggs, room temperature
1 tablespoon vanilla
2 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
spray oil
for the chocolate drizzle:
1/2 cup dark chocolate chips
2 tablespoons raw cashew butter
DIRECTIONS
preheat the oven to 350. set the eggs & coconut milk out of the fridge for 15 minutes then melt the ghee. (the key here is to get the liquid items to a similar temperature so as not to curdle the eggs when you mix them)
combine the coconut flour, tapioca flour, almond flour, baking powder, baking soda & salt in a medium size bowl.
when the ghee has cooled, combine it along with the eggs, coconut milk, vanilla & maple syrup in a medium size measuring cup. add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients & mix well. then fold in the chocolate chips.
generously spray a bundt pan & pour the cake batter into the pan. using wet fingers, smooth out the top of the batter. bake the cake 28-32 minutes or until a wooden toothpick inserted into the middle comes out clean.
allow the cake to cool in the pan for 30 minutes, then loosen the edges with a knife & turn the pan over on top of cake plate.
make the chocolate drizzle by melting the chocolate chips & cashew butter together. this can be done in a double boiler or melted in increments in the microwave. drizzle over the top of the cake & serve. store leftovers in the fridge.
