Chocolate Pound Cake

<< Chocolate Pound Cake makes a dense, rich batter that bakes beautifully in fancy cake pans, the ones that leave the cake with a beautiful geometric or floral pattern once unmolded. This chocolate cake recipe came with the Nordic Ware bundt cake pan that I purchased a number of years ago. A very reliable cake for entertaining.

Ingredients:

• 3 cups sugar
• 1 cup butter, softened
• 3 eggs
• 1 3/4 cups milk or half&half
• 1 tsp. vanilla
• 3 cups all purpose flour
• 1 cup cocoa
• 3 tsp. baking powder
• 1 tsp. salt

In a large bowl, mix sugar and butter until light and fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, milk and vanilla, mixing well after each addition. Add remaining ingredients blending well.

Spoon batter into prepared pan.

Bake for one hour and fifteen minutes to one and a half hours. Cake is ready when a toothpick inserted in the centre of the cake comes out clean. Cool cake for 15 minutes before removing cake from pan.

Cool cake completely. You may dust top of cake with powdered sugar.

Makes 16 servings.
