Simple to make with only three ingredients with a variety of uses. Great to use over Bundt cake because it sets up nicely. The extra sauce may be refrigerated and reheated to serve over ice cream or your favorite dessert. I came up with this once when I didn't have any confectioner's sugar to make a glaze for a Bundt cake.

CHOCOLATE GLAZE FOR BUNDT CAKES

This glaze sets up nicely to drizzle over a bundt cake, and is very easy to put together. I usually have all the ingredients in my pantry. Real brandy or rum can be used in place of the flavoring if you like. Also, Espresso powder can be used for flavoring.

2 Tbsp melted butter
3 Tbsp cocoa powder
1 1/4 c powdered sugar
2-3 Tbsp warm water
1 tsp brandy or vanilla flavor

Steps:

  • 1. Melt the butter. Add all other ingredients. Stir until well mixed, shiny, and smooth. Add more water if you want it thinner at this point.
  • 2. This thickens a bit upon standing. Drizzle over the bundt cake when it's slightly thicker so it can slowly run down the sides of the cake.

Tips:

  • To make sure the cake is cooked through, insert a toothpick into the center of the cake. If it comes out clean, the cake is done.
  • Let the cake cool completely before glazing it. This will help the glaze set properly.
  • If you don't have a bundt cake pan, you can use a 9x13 inch baking pan. Just increase the baking time by 10-15 minutes.
  • Store the cake in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
