Chocoholics Delight! Hershey’s Cocoa Bundt Cake From Vintage Recipe Collection
Chocoholics, listen up! Here is a great recipe for you. This old Hershey’s recipe for Cocoa Bundt Cake is fantastic. And it’s great for any occasion from birthdays to parties to pitch-ins, the list goes on and on. And here’s a holiday hint. For Christmas, crush a candy cane and sprinkle over the top of the glaze to give the cake a pepperminty, holiday taste and look.
This recipe was in an old Hershey’s recipe give-away.
1 2/3 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cups sugar
1/2 cup Hershey’s cocoa
1 1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
2 eggs
1/2 cup shortening
1 1/2 cups buttermilk or sour milk*
1 tsp vanilla extract
Chocolate Glaze (recipe below)
Heat oven to 350 degrees. Generously grease and flour a 12-cup Bundt pan. In the large mixer bowl, blend flour, sugar, dodoa, baking soda, baking powder, and salt; add remaining ingredients except chocolate glaze. Beat on low speed for 1 minute, scraping bowl constantly. Beat on high speed for 3 minutes, scraping bowl occasionally. Pour batter into prepared Bundt pan. Bake for 50 to 55 minutes or until a wooden toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool 10 minutes; remove from pan and place on a wire rack to cool completely. Drizzle with the chocolate glaze.
Yield: 12 to 16 servings
*If you don’t have buttermilk, you can use 1 1/2 tablespoons vinegar plus milk to equal 1 1/2 cups. Allow to sit for a couple of minutes before using.
Chocolate Glaze:
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup water
1 cup Hershey’s Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips or Mini-Chips
In a small saucepan, bring water and sugar to a rolling boil, stirring until the sugar is dissolved. Remove pan from heat. Immediately add the chocolate chips. Stir mixture with a wire whisk until the chips are melted and the mixture is smooth. Cool until slightly thickened. Drizzle over top of cake.
Note: For a pretty presentation, add a few chopped pecans around the top of the cake over the glaze.
