original source

 



Ingredients

• 6 Earl Grey tea bags
• 1 cup water
• 3 eggs
• 1/2 cup butter
• 2 cups sugar
• 2 cups flour
• 1 tsp baking soda
• 1 tsp baking powder
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 1/2 cup plain yogurt
• 4 oz unsweetened chocolate, melted and cooled

 

Directions

• Heat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.  Grease and flour a Bundt pan
• Brew the tea in the water. Remove the tea bags and set the brewed tea aside
• Using a mixer, beat the butter, eggs, and sugar until fluffy. Blend in the melted chocolate. Beat in the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, yogurt, and brewed tea. Pour into a pan
• Bake 50 minutes or until a skewer inserted into the cake comes out with a few crumbs attached. Remove from oven and let stand 5 minutes
• Turn out of pan and cool. Dust with powdered sugar

 

PLEASE NOTE: I have made this cake several times and have never been able to get it to come out of the Bundt pan in one piece. Next time I will probably make cupcakes with this batter, or put it in a loaf pan.
