Ingredients
  

Wet Ingredients
  • 1 cup chocolate milk
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened Ensure at room temperature
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Dry Ingredients
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1.5 cups granulated sugar
  • 0.5 cup unsweetened cocoa powder For a richer flavor, consider using dark chocolate cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 0.5 teaspoon salt
Optional Ingredients
  • 1 cup chocolate chips Optional for extra chocolate flavor

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and generously grease your bundt pan with butter or a non-stick spray.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened butter and granulated sugar. Cream together until light and fluffy, using an electric mixer for efficiency.
  3. Add the eggs, one at a time, ensuring each is fully incorporated before adding the next. Mix in the chocolate milk and vanilla extract until well blended.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add to the wet mixture, stirring gently until just combined.
  5. Fold in the chocolate chips if using.
  6. Pour the batter into your prepared bundt pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
Baking
  1. Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 50-55 minutes. Check doneness by inserting a toothpick; it should come out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
Cooling
  1. Once baked, remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10-15 minutes.
  2. Carefully invert it onto a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Store it wrapped in plastic wrap at room temperature for up to three days or refrigerated for up to a week. Slice and freeze for up to three months. Thaw at room temperature or microwave for a few seconds to warm.
