Super moist, easy and doesn't need icing. I've had many people request this recipe and have had it described as "the best chocolate cake I've ever eaten." To make this healthier, I change the applesauce amount to 2 1/4 c. and use only 1/4 c. of oil.

CHOCOLATE APPLESAUCE BUNDT CAKE

Chocolate Applesauce Bundt Cake image

The original recipe makes 6 individual sized chocolate cakes which is fine for a dinner party, but for everyday snacking, I prefer to make this in a Bundt pan. It is a very moist, delicious cake that keeps well for several days.

Tips:

For a richer flavor, use dark chocolate chips instead of semi-sweet.
To make the applesauce, peel and core 3-4 medium apples, then chop them into small pieces. Place the apples in a saucepan with 1/4 cup of water and 1/4 cup of sugar. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer for 15 minutes, or until the apples are soft. Mash the apples with a potato masher or fork until they are smooth.
If you don't have a bundt pan, you can use a 9x13 inch baking pan. Just be sure to adjust the baking time accordingly. The cake will take about 35-40 minutes to bake in a 9x13 inch pan.
To make sure the cake is done, insert a toothpick into the center. If it comes out clean, the cake is done. If it comes out with batter or crumbs attached, the cake needs to bake for a few more minutes.
Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.

Conclusion:

This applesauce chocolate chip bundt cake is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. The cake is moist and flavorful, with a tender crumb and a rich chocolate flavor. The applesauce adds a subtle sweetness and moisture to the cake, while the chocolate chips add a touch of richness and decadence. This cake is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it!
