Ingredients

  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 1/4 cups sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 1/2 cups milk
  • 1 cup butter softened
  • 6 ounces unsweetened chocolate melted and cooled
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla

Instructions

  • Grease and lightly flour a 10-inch tube pan. Set pan aside.
  • In a very large mixing bowl combine flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Add milk, butter, and cooled chocolate. Beat with an electric mixer on low to medium speed until combined. Beat on medium speed for 2 minutes. Add eggs, vanilla, and almond extract. Beat 2 minutes more. Pour batter into the prepared pan, spreading evenly. Use a knife to cut a zigzag pattern through batter to break up any large air bubbles.
