Brown Sugar and Chocolate Chip Bundt with Maple-Espresso Glaze
I'm not into Sci-Fi. I'm more of a mystery and chick-lit gal. And I wouldn't have made it this far in my Bundt making without Michael Connelly and the library's downloadable audiobooks. You should check out if your library has OverDrive downloadable audiobooks...I listen while baking each morning. If he were real, I'd give Detective Hieronymus "Harry" Bosch a Bundt.
But this weekend. All science fiction. Because somehow I was caught in vortex where my weekend VANISHED. Simply vanished. It's Monday morning and the weekend went into some sort of black hole. Sigh.
So, while I try to figure out where 48 hours went, I give you another Bundt. Today it's Bon Appetit's Brown Sugar and Chocolate Chip Pound Cake with Maple-Espresso Glaze.
I'm making 30 Bundts in 30 days to inspire you to celebrate National Bundt day next Sunday, November 15th!
This cake uses brown sugar (I used 1 cup light brown and 1/2 cup dark brown) and 12 ounces of chocolate chips to make a tasty Bundt.
The glaze is powdered sugar, maple syrup, instant espresso powder and heavy cream.
Since there is espresso in the glaze, please consider this a breakfast alternative. That works for me.
Come on back tomorrow for another Bundt and hopefully a Tuesdays with Dorie treat. Remember, National Bundt Day is less than one week away! (November 15th).
