How to Make Black Forest Chocolate Bundt Cake

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Grease and flour a 10-cup bundt pan.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter and 1 ½ cups packed light brown sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in 4 large eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour, ¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and ½ teaspoon salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with 1 cup sour cream. Begin and end with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
  6. Gently fold in 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips and 1 cup maraschino cherries, drained.
  7. Pour batter into the prepared bundt pan and bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  8. Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  9. Once completely cool, dust generously with powdered sugar and serve. Enjoy!
