Mocha Bundt Cake

SUBMITTED BY: Mark Trinklein 

"'Yum - what moist, rich cake!' is a typical comment when folks take a bite of this lovely dessert. Bittersweet chocolate and strong coffee pair up to deliver the distinctive taste. A dusting of confectioners' sugar is all you need to top this flavorful cake. -Mark Trinklein, Cedarburg, Wisconsin"
