Good Morning! My boyfriend's Mom died a few weeks ago. She had a wonderful recipe for a chocolate bundt cake. Everything appeared to be pretty normal as far as ingredients go, and then there was - four cups of boiling water. The batter was thinner than chocolate milk. Her recipe said to bake for 30-35 minutes at 400. The cake came out like a gelatinous mass. The toothpicks were clean at many different spots on the cake. I am an experienced baker and this seemed really out of whack to me to have four cups of water in a regular size bundt pan. Since his Mom is no longer with us and he and his kids want me to perfect this cake, I am at a loss. Does this seem correct that four cups of boiling water be in any small cake like this? Help....
