2. 2

   In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.

   In a large mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to beat the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.

   Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the milk and vanilla extract.

   Tip: Make sure to scrape down the sides of the bowl.

5. 5

   In a separate bowl, whisk together the espresso powder and confectioner's sugar.

6. 6

   Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the chocolate chunks, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients.

   Tip: Don't overmix!

7. 7

   Divide the batter evenly between the prepared bundt pan and a 20cm round cake pan.

   Tip: To ensure even baking, rotate the pans halfway through the baking time.

   Bake for 25 minutes, then remove from the oven and let cool in the pans for 10 minutes.

   Tip: Let the cake cool completely on a wire rack.
