Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and generously grease a bundt cake pan.
-
In a large mixing bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Whisk the dry ingredients until well combined.
-
In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract until smooth.
-
Gradually incorporate the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
-
Slowly pour the boiling water into the batter, stirring gently until the water is fully incorporated.
-
Gently fold in the cranberries and chocolate chips into the batter. The cranberries will add a burst of tartness, while the chocolate chips will provide hints of sweetness.
-
Pour the batter into the prepared bundt cake pan, spreading it evenly.
-
Bake the cake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
-
Once baked, remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes.
-
Carefully invert the cake onto a wire rack to cool completely before serving.
-
For an added touch, you can dust the cake with powdered sugar or drizzle with a simple chocolate glaze before serving.
