Moist, buttery chocolate chip bundt cake has a delicious vanilla flavor, tons of chocolate chips and is drizzled with chocolate ganache. The perfect combo of chocolate and vanilla in this easy pound cake recipe.
In a large bowl whisk together the flour, baking powder and salt.
In a separate large bowl beat together the butter and sugar until fluffy (about 3-5 minutes).
Add in the vanilla extract and beat in the eggs 1 at a time.
With the mixer on low speed, mix in about ⅓ of the flour mixture followed by about ½ of the sour cream. Turn off the mixer and scrape down the side of the bowl.
Repeat the process until all the flour and sour cream are incorporated.
Gently stir in the chocolate chips.
Brush/spray a 12-cup bundt pan with pan release, or grease well and sprinkle with flour.
Spoon the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 55-65 minutes, or until an inserted toothpick comes out clean.
Cool the cake in the pan for at least 30 minutes, then carefully invert onto a cooling rack and continue cooling.
Chocolate Ganache
Chop the chocolate into small pieces and place in a heatproof bowl.
Heat the cream until almost boiling, then pour the hot cream over the chocolate.
Let sit for 2 minutes, then whisk until smooth.
Drizzle (or pour) the chocolate over the bundt cake.
