Provided by kaydeis

Number Of Ingredients 18

For the cake:
3 cups (378 g) AP flour
1/2 tsp baking soda
3/4 tsp salt
2 cups mini chocolate chips
1/2 lb (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
3 cups sugar
6 large eggs
3/4 tsp peppermint extract
2 tsp vanilla
3 Tbs creme de menthe
1 Tbs heavy cream
3/4 cup low fat sour cream
For the glaze:
12 oz semi sweet chocolate chips
1/2 cup heavy cream
3-4 T creme de menthe, to taste
a few drops of peppermint extract, to taste

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat the oven to 325 F. Spray a nonstick bundt pan thoroughly with flour/grease mixture. Also spray some bundlettes or mini loaves for the excess batter. Set aside. 2. Whisk together the flour, baking soda and salt. Remove 1 tablespoon and toss with the chocolate chips. Set the chips and the flour mixture aside. 3. Whisk together the peppermint extract, vanilla, creme de menthe, heavy cream and sour cream. Set aside. 4. Cream the butter in large bowl of mixer on moderate speed for 4 mins. Add the sugar in 4 additions, beating for 1 minute after each portion is added. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating for 30 secs after each addition and scraping down the sides of bowl. On low speed, add the sifted flour mixture in 3 additions, alternating with sour cream mixture in 2 additions, beginning and ending with the flour mixture. Remember to keep scraping sides and bottom of bowl. Fold in the chocolate chips by hand. Try not to just eat the batter. 5. Scrape batter into prepared pan(s) and smooth top with rubber spatula. 6. How long you bake the cake will depend on the size(s). A 10 inch tube cake will take 1 hour and 15 minutes. A 9-10 inch bundt cake will take approximately 1 hour. 1 cup size bundlettes take around 25 minutes. You will just need to watch for whatever sizes you choose to make. 7. Bake the cake(s) for the recommended time, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean (it may hit chocolate chip and be smeared with melted chocolate, which is fine). The baked cake will pull also slightly away from the sides of the pan. 8. While the cake is baking, make the glaze. Combine all ingredients into a small saucepan over low heat. As it melts, stir to incorporate. When it is completely melted, set aside to let it cool and thicken slightly. 9. Cool the cake in the pan(s) on a rack for 10-15 mins, then invert onto another cooling rack. Cool completely. Drizzle with the cooled glaze. Let set before slicing.

I used a different type of chocolate chips than the recipe called for, and it still turned out great.
