I don't see this recipe much in the US, but it's really amazing. It's a red wine cake with chocolate that is common in Germany and Switzerland. It's a good way to use up a bottle of wine and it is one of those cakes that has people amazed that wine gives the color and flavor. It is usually made in a springform bundt pan but you can use a non-springform pan, which is more common in the US (Germans use springforms a lot.) A trick to grease the pan is to melt butter and mix in flour (or flour and cocoa) and then use a silicone brush to get into EACH cranny of the pan. Helps with release. This cake is not iced (typical of European cakes, they don't much go for icing except on gateau-type cakes, and then it's often stabilised whipped cream.)

Thanks.

Well, I'll be! I never knew there was such a thing as a bundt spring form pan! I just looked it up and Macy's has one for $30. Cool pan! My springform is getting old...I should get one of these dual pans next!
Thanks for sharing this recipe!
