Honey Chocolate Bundt Cake

September 14, 2017 by overtimecook 15 Comments

Honey Chocolate Bundt Cake is a moist and flavorful cake for Rosh Hashanah and all year long!

 Rosh Hashanah is just a week away, and if you’re stuck firmly in the “I don’t really like honey cake” camp, I’ve got some really good news for you. You’re going to love this honey cake!

A while ago, I had this idea. What if I could take a honey cake, keep the moistness and flavor, but give it an extra burst of flavor with something to tone down that strong honey flavor that not everyone loves? Enter Best Select Dutch Process cocoa powder! This high-quality cocoa is high-quality, and really intense in the chocolate flavor. Add it to honey cake, and it’s definitely the dominant flavor in the cake, but there’s a nice undertone of honey, which works perfectly with the chocolate! This cake is so moist, it’s amazing. Just look:

So if you’re ready for a change on the typical honey cake, try this one. You may just find yourself making it all year long!

This cake is fantastic without a glaze, but you can punch up the honey flavor (and looks!) with a honey glaze if you like.

      Honey is the dominant flavor here, so it’s not the best idea to replace it.

    Made this Bundt cake this morning. It rose so beautiful. Its very light and bouncy. Beautiful chocolate color. I used the Hersheys Dark Cocoa Powder instead. I couldn’t resist before it cooled so I tried a piece. Perfection! This will go well with a good cup of coffee after dinner. 🙂 Thank you for sharing this recipe.

      Yes, loaf pans would work. Divide the cake between two loaf pans. You may need to reduce baking time somewhat.

    Please advise. Why is it so liquidy and takes so long to bake that outer gets burnt and inside is raw
