Chocolate Chocolate-Chip Bundt Cake {contributor Celeste}

I’m not one of those die-hard, gotta-have-it chocolate lovers, don’t get me wrong, I love chocolate, I’m just not over the top about it. However, there are times when I crave big bold chocolate flavor, and this cake fits the bill.

Is it simple and easy to make?, Yes, and something else that may surprise you about this cake, it’s vegan.

I’m not one of those die-hard, gotta-have-it chocolate lovers, don’t get me wrong, I love chocolate, I’m just not over the top about it. However, there are times when I crave big bold chocolate flavor, and this cake fits the bill.

Is it simple and easy to make?, Yes, and something else that may surprise you about this cake, it’s vegan.

I’ve tried several vegan cake recipes, but most have turned out a bit dry and crumbly, I’ve finally nailed it with this one.

For fun I reserved a small amount of the batter before adding the chocolate to make a vanilla center, this is optional of course.

As the cake bakes, the chocolate surrounds the vanilla.

The glaze – not just simple and easy, but super simple and easy. Only three ingredients, cacao powder, cashew milk and maple syrup.

Soft, moist, chocolate-on-chocolate deliciousness. You gotta give this one a try!
