Ingredients in Chocolate Pound Cake

This list of ingredients will surprise you! It’s very simple, and you probably already have most of the ingredients in your pantry! Check out the recipe card at the bottom of the post for all of the exact measurements.

Flour: I used all-purpose flour in this recipe. Unsweetened Cocoa Powder: The cocoa powder adds in the chocolate flavor and the chocolate color! Baking Powder: This helps the cake to rise and be soft. Salt: The salt enhances all of the other ingredients in the recipe. Butter: I use unsalted butter in this recipe. Granulated Sugar: This provides a good balance and creates a sweet flavor! Eggs: I always use large eggs when I am cooking. These will mix in better if you let them come down to room temperature before starting!Buttermilk: You can buy this at the store or easily make it at home with this recipe. Sour Cream: This adds moisture to the cake and helps make a soft texture. Vanilla Extract: Add a splash of sweet vanilla flavor to this chocolate pound cake with this extract!

Let’s Bake a Cake!

This chocolate pound cake is rich and soft and melts in your mouth with every single bite. Topped with some powdered sugar and berries, this makes the absolute perfect dessert!

Prepare the Bundt Pan: The best pan spray to use for bundt cakes is one that is meant for baking and contains flour in it. This, plus the dusting of cocoa powder, will help ensure your bundt cake releases from the pan in one piece. Don’t Over-Fill the Pan: If your bundt pan is smaller than 10 cups, only fill it ⅔ of the way full. This will help avoid the bottom of the cake rising too much and spilling over the sides of the pan. Let it Cool: Resist the urge to remove the cake from the pan before it has cooled enough. It needs time to pull away from the pan. It doesn’t have to be completely cooled, but the bottom of the cake should feel only barely warm to the touch before you give the pan enough of a shake for it to come loose from the pan.
