Dulce De Leche Chocolate
Chip Bundt Pound Cake

A pound cake version flavored with dulce de leche. In this recipe, the caramel flavor turns the batter a soft golden hue and adds a mellow flavor.

Chopped pecans could be added to this classic cake but plain, and /or with chocolate chips, it is a winner. Yogurt can replace the buttermilk in this recipe.

Ingredients

• 1 (14 ounce) can dulce de leche caramel sauce
• 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
• 1 cup dark brown sugar, firmly packed
• 4 eggs
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 1 cup buttermilk or sour cream
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 3 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 cup chocolate chips
