A festive Halloween Bundt Cake colored with vibrant hues and topped with smooth chocolate ganache, perfect for celebrating Halloween.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 box (15.25 oz) Golden Butter cake mix
  • 7 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 3/4 cup whole milk
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1/2 teaspoon purple gel food color
  • 1/2 teaspoon green gel food color
  • 1/2 teaspoon orange gel food color
  • 1 cup bittersweet chocolate
  • 3/4 cup heavy cream
  • Halloween colored sprinkles

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350° F. Prepare a bundt pan (10 cup) by spraying with cooking spray. Set aside.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, add the dry cake mix, melted butter, whole milk, and eggs. Beat with an electric hand mixer on medium speed for at least 2-3 minutes until it’s well combined.
  3. Separate the cake batter into three separate bowls.
  4. Add the purple gel food color to one bowl and stir until the color is incorporated. Repeat with the green gel food coloring and orange food coloring.
  5. Randomly drop spoonfuls of each color into the prepared bundt pan, alternating between the three colors.
  6. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the top middle comes out clean.
  7. Let the cake cool in the bundt pan for 10 minutes before inverting it onto a cooling rack to finish cooling.
  8. For the chocolate ganache, put the bittersweet chocolate into a glass mixing bowl. Add the heavy cream to a small saucepan over medium-low heat and bring to a simmer.
  9. Remove from heat and immediately pour the hot cream over the bittersweet chocolate. Let it sit for 3 minutes.
  10. After 3 minutes, whisk until combined and smooth.
  11. Pour the ganache over the cake and decorate with sprinkles while the ganache is still wet. Allow the ganache to set before serving.

Notes

  • I like to use baking spray (cooking spray + flour) when I make cakes.
  • You can use a scale to separate the batter evenly into three bowls.
  • Ensure the cake is completely cooled before applying the ganache.
