Few things delight me more than a Bundt cake, and few things excite me more than cutting into a swirled or marbled cake and seeing how things played out in the oven. This Swirled, Spiced Sour Cream Bundt had all my neurons sparking. It features a sturdy but moist sour cream cake with fudgy ripples of spices, nuts and chocolate. I added a little powdered espresso to the swirl sprinkle, and to the thick glaze I topped the cake with. As I lifted out the first couple of slices, I was pleased to see that the swirl had behaved itself. This was great as a dessert cake and as a coffee cake.

So beautiful! I like the addition of the espresso powder…I am sure added some depth to that Chocolate…which I can always use more of haha. This was a good recipe to remember!

Indeed, I love a cake that behaves itself. It really does look lovely and the color of your icing goes so nicely with it. Beautiful photo.

Bundts are wonderful and the addition of some coffee flavor divine.
