My sister-in-law shares my name, so in my house she’s Tanta Chaya, and I’ve been making her chocolate cake for years. My kids grew up with this cake, and now they make it in their own homes.
My son even has a baking business, and this is his top-selling cake! You can make this as a Bundt cake or as two eight-inch (20-centimeter) rounds for a birthday cake. Pair the Bundt cake with this super-simple glaze, and you’ve got an instant winner!
Yields 1 bundt cake
2 eggs
2 cups sugar
1/2 cup oil
3/4 teaspoon Gefen Baking Soda
3/4 teaspoon baking powder
3/4 cup Gefen Cocoa
1 and 3/4 cups Glicks Flour
1 and 3/4 cups water
1 and 1/2 cups Gefen Confectioners’ Sugar
3 tablespoons oil
3 tablespoons Gefen Cocoa
3 tablespoons hot water
Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius).
Cream the eggs and sugar. Slowly add the oil.
Add the dry ingredients, alternating with the water, until it’s all smooth and combined.
Pour the batter into a Bundt pan and bake for 45 minutes.
Mix all ingredients until thick and smooth (if it’s too thin, add sugar).
Pour glaze over the cooled cake.
