The beauty of this bundt cake recipe is that you don't need a mixer to make it! I used one of my newest Nordic Ware (Magnolia) Bundt Pans and I love how the design baked. You don't have to drink a glass of milk, it's that tender and moist. However, the cake is perfect with a cup of coffee, too!
In a medium sauce pan, bring to a boil butter, water, oil, and cocoa.
Meanwhile, whisk together flour, sugar, and salt in a mixing bowl.
Pour the chocolate mixture into the bowl with the dry ingredients and mix well.
Add the buttermilk and baking soda.
Mix together the eggs, cinnamon, and vanilla in a small bowl, and add to the batter.
Pour batter into prepared pan.
Bake in a bundt cake pan at 375°F for 30-35 minutes . NOTE: My cake took 40 minutes, before a long wooden skewer came out with just a few crumbs attached. Cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes, then invert. Allow to completely cool, before serving.
