This is one of the easiest and best bundt cakes I have ever made.
It comes from the Food Librarian's blog and I followed her recipe exactly.
I will make it all the time (well, not all the time, that might be a health hazard).
The combination of cinnamon and chocolate is beautiful. It's so fragrant.
Only a dusting of powdered sugar is needed for the top.
Cinnamon Chocolate Bundt Cake: (adapted from The Food Librarian)
1 cup water
½ cup vegetable oil
½ cup butter
5 tablespoons cocoa powder
2 cups all purpose flour
2 cups sugar
½ teaspoon salt
½ cup buttermilk
1 teaspoon baking soda
2 large eggs, beaten
1½ teaspoons cinnamon
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Preheat oven to 375°F. In a small saucepan, bring the water, oil, butter, and cocoa powder to a boil. Meanwhile, whisk together the flour, sugar, and salt. Add the boiling mixture to the flour mixture and stir well.
Add in the buttermilk and baking soda.
Combine the eggs, cinnamon and vanilla in a small bowl and add to the batter. Stir until just combined.
Pour into a greased bundt pan and bake for
30-35 minutes or until a tester comes out clean.
Cool for 10 minutes in the pan before removing.
Dust with confectioners sugar and serve!
Enjoy!

Easy and satisfying!
Food Librarian is dangerous isn't she?? LOL This looks great!
Oh yum - this combination looks divine. Save a slice for me.
This is such a beautiful cake! I love desserts that look nice on their own and only require minimal decoration!
Love cinnamon and chocolate. Every time I make a bundt I think of the movie my Big Fat Greek Wedding...it's a bundt(LOL)! Did you see that?
Cinnamon & chocolate just smell like something special together don't they?
Food Librarian has such delicious sweets :)
This looks awesome--I love a good, moist chocolate cake!
My husband is going to love this. I can't wait to make it for him.
I'm so glad you made this! It is my favorite and I'm glad it is now in your rotation of big beautiful Bundts! :) hee hee. - mary the food librarian
This bundt cake looks delicious. I think you are right, this might be pretty easy to make. I am going to make this cake this weekend. Thanks for sharing.
I'm laughing because I posted this one in April called "When Bundt Cakes Go Bad". Mine stuck and broke apart! But, it was still delicious. Yes, it's easy and very tasty. Yours is far prettier than mine.
Looks beautiful! I'm hungry for chocolate cake now.
This looks wonderful and is a serious contender for our holiday menu!
Oh, yum. I love anything baked in a bundt pan- though I keep convincing myself that I don't "need" one, as it's only my boyfriend and I here, and two people really can't eat that much cake, can they? Hopefully not, anyway.
That's a great looking cake! The cinnamon and chocolate combination sounds delicious.
That's a beautiful cake and it is so easy. I love bundt cakes :)
Fantastic and amazing! I'm totally going to steal that recipe. I JUST replaced my old and sad and super sticky bundt pan with a new shiny and non-stick one. Sometimes I want cake but anything overly fussy or frosting-y. Looks great!
I love cinnamon and chocolate! Good times. I haven't made a bundt in ages, maybe that will be my next project.
Your bundt looks awesome!!! and yummy!
That bundt cake sure looks beautiful!
Stacey, I haven't made a bundt cake in years. Your is gorgeous. Makes we want to buy a pan - I have no idea what happened to my old one. I really like the combination of cinnamon and chocolate -very much in the holiday spirit.
