Makes one bundt cake Difficulty
Medium
Ingredients
9 ounces semi-sweet gf chocolate, chopped 2-1/2 cups gf flour 2 heaping teaspoons baking powder Pinch of salt 1-1/2 sticks of unsalted butter 3/4 vegetable oil 1-3/4 cups sugar 8 eggs, at room temperature Juice of 1 lemon Zest of 1 lemon 5 Tablespoons dark rum, divided 3 Tablespoons buttermilk 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
Directions
Set a rack in center of oven and heat to 350 degrees F.
Butter a bundt pan and dust with gf flour.
Place chocolate in the top of a double boiler. Place over simmering water and stir with a rubber spatula until almost melted. Remove from heat and stir until completely melted. Let cool.
In a medium bowl, mix together flour, baking powder and salt; set aside.
In a large bowl, using an electric mixer on medium speed, beat butter, oil and sugar for about 3 minutes. Beat in eggs, two at a time, beating well between each addition. Beat in lemon juice, zest and 2 tablespoons rum.
Gradually beat flour mixture into butter mixture. Remove 3 cups of batter to a separate bowl. Stir 3 tablespoons rum, buttermilk and baking soda into the chocolate and beat chocolate mixture into the 3 cups of batter. Pour the white batter into the bundt pan and then top with the chocolate batter. Take a butter knife and plunge it into the batter, cutting up and down to create a marble effect with the two batters. Gently stir through once.
Bake for 1 hour or until an inserted toothpick comes out clean.
Cool on a rack for 15 minutes, then invert to a rack and cool completely.
