Rich Chocolate Pound Cake
Estimated Times:
Preparation - 15 min | Cooking - 55 min | Cooling Time - 45 min cooling | Yields - 16

Classic pound cake gets a chocolate boost in this rich dessert that's finished with a decorative drizzle of melted chocolate.

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups (12-ounce package) NESTLÉ TOLL HOUSE Semi-Sweet Chocolate Morsels, divided
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 cups packed light brown sugar
  • 1 cup (2 sticks) butter, softened
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 4 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1/2 cup milk

Directions:
PREHEAT oven to 350º F. Grease 10-inch Bundt pan.

MICROWAVE 1 1/2 cups morsels in medium, uncovered, microwave-safe bowl on HIGH (100%) power for 1 minute; STIR. The morsels may retain some of their original shape. If necessary, microwave at additional 10- to 15-second intervals, stirring just until morsels are melted. Cool to room temperature.

COMBINE flour, baking powder and salt in medium bowl. Beat sugar, butter and vanilla extract in large mixer bowl until creamy. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in melted chocolate. Gradually beat in flour mixture alternately with milk. Spoon into prepared Bundt pan.

BAKE for 55 to 65 minutes or until wooden pick inserted in cake comes out clean. Cool in pan for 30 minutes. Invert cake onto wire rack to cool completely.

MICROWAVE remaining morsels in heavy-duty plastic bag on HIGH (100%) power for 45 seconds; knead bag. Microwave at additional 10- to 15-second intervals, kneading until smooth. Cut a small hole in corner of bag; squeeze to drizzle over cake.

(CNSNews.com) - A liberal advocacy group is casting mothers as victims of job discrimination. In an email to supporters, MoveOn.org's political action committee asks, "Did you know that in most states mothers can be denied a job or given less pay for the same work, just because they're mothers?" MoveOn PAC said it is trying to collect 50,000 signatures on its "MomsRising" campaign before Mother's Day. The campaign will urge lawmakers to support "real family issues," which it describes as "protecting mothers from discrimination in hiring, promoting the work flexibility that all parents need, and demanding universal health care and a living wage for all Americans so they can support their families." The email mentions how "incredibly difficult it's become" for mothers in this country. And it describes the MomsRising campaign as an important step "in building a progressive movement that connects deeply with the needs of American families. And mothers."
