Chocolate Pine Forest Bundt Cake

As an alternative to Christmas pudding, make this Pine Forest Chocolate bundt cake. Made in no time at all. Decorate with white chocolate snowmen and a dusting of icing sugar for snow.

For an alternative flavour, use different flavoured cocoa powders, such as those from Sugar and crumbs. I used their Cherry Chocolate flavoured cocoa powders, but you can use any cocoa powder. Dust with icing sugar before serving and decorate with chocolate treats.

INGREDIENTS

• 280 grams butter softened
• 280 grams golden caster sugar
• 5 medium eggs
• 200 grams self raising flour
• 80 grams cocoa powder
• 110 ml vanilla or plain yogurt
• icing sugar for dusting
• chocolate snow men for decoration optional

Instructions

 

• Preheat the oven to 170deg (fan assisted)
• Prepare the Pine Forest Bundt pan by spraying with cake release spray and coat with flour. Dust off any excess flour. Leave to one side.
• Using an electric mixer, beat together the sugar and butter until lighter in colour and a little fluffy. Remember to scrape down the sides of the bowl if needed.
• Gradually add the eggs, one at a time, adding a little flour each time. Mix until well combined.
• Add the remaining flour, cocoa powder and yogurt. Mix until well combined.
• Carefully spoon the mixture into the bundt pan, ensuring the batter fills all the pine forest crevices.
• Bake in the over for about 40 – 50 mins or until baked. Testing the different parts of the cake with a skewer until it comes out clean. If needed cover the top of the cake with baking parchment to help prevent the cake burning.
• Take out of the oven and leave in the tin to cool for 10 – 15 mins, before turning out onto a wire wrack to cool completely.
• Shower with icing sugar and decorate with chocolate snowmen.
