Prep Time 10 minutes
Active Time 50 minutes
Additional Time 5 minutes
Total Time 1 hour 5 minutes

Ingredients

  • 6 large eggs
  • 2 cups powdered sugar
  • 1 3/4 cups granulated sugar
  • 1 ¾ cups salted butter, softened
  • 2 ¼ cups all purpose flour
  • ¾ cups unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 2 cups walnuts, chopped
  • 1 cup chocolate chips, for ganache
  • 1 cup heavy whipped cream

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. 

In large mixing bowl, cream together butter and sugar. Add in eggs one at a time while mixing. Fold in powdered sugar until mixed through.

Add in flour half at a time and mix well until blended. Fold in the walnuts until mixed through.

Spray a bundt pan with non-stick cooking spray and spoon mixture evenly into the bundt pan.

Bake for 50 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool on a wire rack for 2 hours before inverting onto a plate and letting it sit for another 1 and ½ hours prior to topping with ganache and serving. The toothpick test does NOT work with this cake.

To make chocolate ganache, melt chocolate chips and heavy cream over medium low heat in a saucepan; stir to avoid burning to the bottom.

Cool ganache in the refrigerator to thicken slightly and then spoon over the top of the cake when ready to serve.
