**Chocolate Pound Bundt Cake**
**Ingredients:**
– 2 cups all-purpose flour
– 1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
– 1 teaspoon baking powder
– 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
– 1/2 teaspoon salt
– 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
– 2 cups sugar
– 4 large eggs, room temperature
– 1 cup sour cream
– 1/2 cup milk
– 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
– 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
**Instructions:**
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 10-cup bundt pan, making sure to coat it thoroughly to prevent sticking.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined. Set aside.
3. In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.
4. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Then, stir in the vanilla extract.
5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the sour cream and milk. Begin and end with the dry ingredients.
6. Fold in the chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
7. Pour the batter into the prepared bundt pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
8. Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
9. Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
10. Once cooled, you can dust the cake with powdered sugar or drizzle with a chocolate glaze for extra decadence.
Whether you’re hosting a gathering or simply craving a sweet treat, this Chocolate Pound Bundt Cake is sure to delight.
