Ingredients

• 1.75 cups all-purpose flour
• 1.75 cups granulated sugar
• 0.75 cups unsweetened cocoa powder
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1.5 teaspoons baking soda
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 2 large eggs
• 1 cup whole milk
• 0.5 cup vegetable oil
• 0.5 cup dark rum
• 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
• 1 cup boiling water
• 1 cup dark chocolate chips
• 0.5 cup milk chocolate chips
• 0.5 cup white chocolate chips
• 0.5 cup powdered sugar
• 4 tablespoons butter (unsalted)
• 2 tablespoons dark rum (for glaze)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease and flour a 10-cup bundt pan or standard cake pan.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

Step 3

Add the eggs, milk, vegetable oil, dark rum, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Mix until smooth and well combined.

Step 4

Slowly pour in the boiling water, stirring constantly. The batter will be thin—this is normal.

Step 5

Fold in the dark chocolate chips, milk chocolate chips, and white chocolate chips evenly into the batter.

Step 6

Pour the batter into the prepared bundt pan or cake pan. Smooth the top with a spatula.

Step 7

Bake for 45 to 50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs.

Step 8

While the cake is baking, prepare the rum glaze. In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Stir in the powdered sugar and 2 tablespoons of dark rum until smooth. Remove from heat and set aside.

Step 9

Once the cake is done, let it cool in the pan for 15 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack.

Step 10

Using a skewer, poke small holes all over the surface of the cake. Slowly pour the rum glaze over the cake, letting it absorb.

Step 11

Allow the cake to cool completely before serving, about 1 hour. Optionally, garnish with additional white chocolate shavings or powdered sugar.

Step 12

Serve and enjoy this rich, triple-chocolate delight with a hint of rum!
