Mocha Chili Bundt Cake Recipe

Chili Mocha Bundt Cake Recipe To warm your lips as well as your heart, here is my recipe for a Mocha Chili Bundt Cake. It has that Mexican hot cocoa flavor of cinnamon and spice, with a rich mocha coffee decadence that lends itself perfectly to the cooler days ahead. It would go quite nicely with a Smoky Watermelon Mezcal cocktail.

But can we talk about the real star here? Yeah, my husband bought me that bundt pan. I knelt down to open up the overly-packaged amazon box, and upon finding this beauty nestled inside I looked up at my husband with a gaze of love so deep and sincere… the best feeling in the world is that of being understood. Recieving this bundt pan as a gift from him made me feel truly known and loved. Ha! I’m only like 5% kidding. This pan is magic, it’s the famous Nordic Ware bundt pan (releases like a dream) in the Jubilee shape, you can find it on Amazon here: Nordic Ware Jubilee Bundt Pan.

Ok, but back to the mocha chili bundt cake recipe. Make this one up, if you are making it for kids who don’t like “spicy” just leave out the cayenne. Get my Mocha Chili Bundt Cake recipe after the jump…

Is it baking powder or baking soda? The ingredients say one thing and the method says something else.
