Ingredients
- 2 cups Flour
- 3/4 cup Cocoa Powder
- 1-1/2 cup Granulated Sugar
- 1-1/2 tsp Baking Powder
- 1 tsp Baking Soda
- 1/2 tsp Kosher Salt
- 2 tsp Vanilla Extract
- 2 Eggs Large
- 1/2 cup Sour Cream
- 1/2 cup Heavy Cream
- 1/2 cup Neutral Oil
- 1 cup Hot Brewed Coffee
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a Bundt pan to ensure the cake doesn’t stick.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and kosher salt.
- Combine Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the vanilla extract, eggs, sour cream, heavy cream, and neutral oil until smooth.
- Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: Slowly add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Incorporate Hot Coffee: Gradually add the hot brewed coffee to the mixture, whisking constantly to combine.
- Pour batter into Pan: Pour the batter into the prepared Bundt pan, spreading it evenly.
- Bake the Cake: Bake in the preheated oven for 45 to 50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
- Cool and Serve: Allow the cake to cool in the pan for about 15 minutes, then invert it onto a wire rack to cool completely. Dust with powdered sugar or drizzle with chocolate ganache before serving, if desired.
