- In a bowl mix together the dry ingredients, flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder and salt.
- In another container place the butter with the brown sugar, granulated sugar and vanilla and beat with an electric whisk for about 2-3 minutes until smooth.
- Add the eggs one by one and beat for a few seconds to incorporate them well.
- Add the fresh cream, then the dry ingredients, coffee and chocolate chips and mix gently with a spatula.
- Pour the mixture into the prepared bundt cake pan and bake for about 40-50 minutes. Check for doneness with a toothpick by sticking it in the center of the cake, if it comes out clean the cake is done, if not, extend it for a few minutes.
- Let the cake cool completely in the pan before removing from the pan.
Chocolate glaze
- Heat the chopped chocolate with the heavy cream and vegetable oil in a double boiler or in the microwave until you have a liquid glaze.
