Instructions: Set the oven temperature to 175C 350F. Grease and dust a pan for Bundt cakes. Mix the flour, sugar, baking soda, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt in a sizable mixing bowl. To the dry ingredients, add the eggs, buttermilk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract. Blend until thoroughly blended. Once the batter is smooth, stir in the hot water. It's okay that it will be thin. Add the chocolate chips and fold. Fill the Bundt cake pan with the batter. A toothpick inserted into the center should come out clean after 45 to 50 minutes of baking. After letting the cake cool in the pan for ten minutes, turn it out onto a wire rack to finish cooling. For extra decadence, after the cake cools, you can drizzle melted chocolate over it or dust it with powdered sugar. Cut, present, and savor!
