Cooking Instructions
- 1
Whisk together your sugar and egg for 1 minute until you have a few bubbles.
Add the buttermilk, hot coffee, oil, vanilla extract and, salt and mix again. - 2
Add your cocoa powder and whisk until smooth. Add your flour, baking powder, baking soda and fold until there are no pockets of flour.
Stir in the chopped walnuts. - 3
Pour into an 8x8 greased and parchment lined pan and bake for 35-45 minutes at 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
- 4
Let the cake cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then remove and let cool completely on a wire cooling rack.
- 5
Melt the chocolate in a small microwave safe bowl. I recommend doing it in 15 second increments, making sure you stir after every increment so it doesn't burn.
- 6
Beat your butter and confectioners' sugar together on low speed in your stand mixer or with a hand mixer until well combined. Turn the speed to high and mix for 2-3 minutes until fluffy.
- 7
Add in your cocoa powder and mix on low until the cocoa powder is combined - this stops it from flying everywhere! Increase the speed to medium and mix for 1-2 minutes. Pour in your sour cream, melted chocolate and salt and mix once more.
- 8
Spread the chocolate frosting on top of your cooled cake and enjoy!

Scrumptious Walnut – Chocolate Bundt Cake Scrumptious Walnut – Chocolate Bundt Cake
A few days ago a very dear friend of mine called me up to ask me if I was able to make a cake for a small gathering that she was hosting on Friday night. As we were chatting away I asked her if she had a preference, but I already knew that she was a chocolate lover. 🙂 So, two fantastic recipes popped into mind to choose from one was the Chocolate Almond Upside Down Cake or the Walnut – Chocolate Bundt Cake and the choice was obvious the latter. 🙂So, I took out my pots and pans and all my other little gadgets and got to work on it yesterday morning. As I was making the cake I thought to myself ufff have to try the batter to see if its any good, as I mentioned previously me and chocolate not such a good mix hahahahaha, but what can I do!! I have to taste what I make and bake right! and so I did and it was good. 🙂 Popped it into the oven, cleaned up the kitchen and off I went to make my next recipe, which I will be posting tomorrow or Monday not sure yet. 🙂You will see that there is a glaze on the cake…unfortunately, I have difficulties in NL finding some ingredients to make the recipes that I want too. I went to 3 different supermarkets and I could not find heavy cream, 😦 so my glaze is store bought. But I have added the ingredients for the glaze, because I am sure it exists elsewhere. 🙂Last night I took over the cake, and it was a success…I was very happy that everyone loved it!! 🙂 and I hope you do too…:) Foodzesty -
