Number Of Ingredients 13

cocoa powder for dusting
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
3/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 pound fine-quality bittersweet chocolate (not unsweetened), chopped
3 sticks (1 1/2 cups) unsalted butter, cut into pieces
1/3 cup dark rum
2 cups strong brewed coffee
2 1/4 cups granulated sugar
3 large eggs, beaten lightly
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
confectioners' sugar for dusting
lightly sweetened whipped cream

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 300°F. Butter a 4 1/2-inch-deep (12-cup) Kugelhupf or bundt pan and dust with cocoa powder, knocking out excess.
  • In a bowl whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt. In a large metal bowl set over a saucepan of barely simmering water melt chocolate and butter, stirring until smooth. Remove chocolate from heat and stir in rum, coffee, and granulated sugar. With an electric mixer beat in flour, 1/2 cup at a time, scraping down side, and beat in eggs and vanilla until batter is combined well. Pour batter into prepared pan.
  • Bake cake in middle of oven until a tester comes out clean, about 1 hour and 50 minutes. Let cake cool completely in pan on a rack and turn it out onto rack. Cake may be made 3 days in advance and kept wrapped well and chilled.
  • Dust cake with confectioners' sugar and serve with whipped cream.

I was a bit disappointed with this cake. It was dry and the flavor was just okay. I wouldn't make it again.

I've made this mocha rum cake several times now, and it's always a crowd-pleaser. It's moist and flavorful, with the perfect amount of sweetness. The glaze is the perfect finishing touch.

This mocha rum cake was a hit at my dinner party! The combination of coffee and chocolate was divine, and the rum glaze added a touch of sophistication. My guests raved about it and asked for the recipe.
