Ingredients
Cake
- ½ cup all-purpose flour
- ¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- ⅛ teaspoon baking soda
- ⅛ teaspoon sea salt
- 2 ounces unsalted butter softened
- ¾ cup light brown sugar packed
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 ounces semi-sweet chocolate baking bar melted and cooled slightly
- ⅓ cup sour cream
Ganache
- 2 ounces semi-sweet chocolate baking bar finely chopped
- ⅓ cup heavy whipping cream
- Chocolate sprinkles for garnish optional
Instructions
- Grease a 3-cup bundt pan well with baking spray and set aside.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt and set aside.
- In a medium-sized bowl cream together the butter and brown sugar with a hand mixer. The mixture will not be completely smooth, but instead, have a slightly crumbly texture.
- Add in the eggs one at a time until fully combined. Then add in the vanilla and mix until combined, scrape down the sides of the bowl.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the melted chocolate1 and the sour cream.
- Add half of the flour mixture to the egg mixture until incorporated then add half of the sour cream/chocolate mixture and mix until combined. Scrape down the sides of the bowl then repeat with the remaining flour mixture and sour cream mixture.
- Add the batter evenly into the bundt pan and smooth out the top.
- Preheat the air fryer to 320°F. Place the bundt pan in the air fryer basket and cook for 14 minutes. Rotate 180° and air fry for an additional 10 to 14 minutes2 or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the bundt cool in the pan for 10 minutes, invert the pan to release the cake, and let cool completely on a wire rack.
- Once the bundt is cool, make the ganache glaze by adding the finely chopped chocolate to a heatproof bowl.
- Add the cream to a small saucepot over medium-low heat and bring it to scalding or just when the first bubbles pop up to the surface. The temperature of the cream will be 160°-170°F. Pour the cream over the chopped chocolate and let it sit for 5 minutes.
- Whisk the ganache until it is smooth. Let it cool on the counter until it is thickened but still pourable, about 5 to 10 minutes.
- Pour the ganache over the bundt cake. Decorate with sprinkles if desired. Serve as is or with fresh whipped cream and berries on the side.
