Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees then line the bottom of an 8" x 5" loaf pan with parchment paper. Coat generously with non-stick cooking spray.
  • In a large bowl, or the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with paddle attachment, add flour, sugar, cocoa, baking powder and salt, and mix until evenly combined.
  • Add softened butter, oil, and milk then beat on medium speed until smooth. Add vanilla and beaten eggs then mix until well combined.
  • Pour batter into the prepared pan then bake for 75–80 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  • Cool the cake in the pan for 10 minutes before removing. Return cake to the rack until completely cool.
  • When cake has cooled, place chocolate chips and cream into a microwave-safe bowl then microwave for 20–30 seconds, just until warm. Remove from microwave, allowing mixture to sit for about 1 minute so the chocolate can continue to melt.
  • Add corn syrup or honey then stir until smooth and glossy. If chocolate is not completely melted, heat in 10-second intervals in the microwave until completely melted. Pour glaze over pound cake loaf and spread evenly. Allow glaze to set then slice and serve.

Notes

We love a dense and buttery pound cake but thought a chocolate version would be even better!
