Make It

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350º F. Grease 12-cup Bundt pan.

Step 2

Microwave 1 cup morsels in small, uncovered, microwave-safe bowl on MEDIUM-HIGH (70%) power for 1 minute; STIR. If pieces retain some of their original shape, microwave at additional 10- to 15-second intervals, stirring just until melted.

Step 3

Combine flour, cinnamon, baking soda, 1/2 teaspoon salt and cayenne pepper in small bowl. Beat brown sugar, granulated sugar, 3/4 cup butter and vanilla extract in large mixer bowl until creamy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in melted chocolate. Beat flour mixture into creamed mixture alternately with milk. Pour into prepared Bundt pan.

Step 4

Bake for 40 to 45 minutes or until wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes; invert cake onto wire rack to cool completely. Transfer cake to serving platter.

Step 5

Microwave remaining 1/3 cup morsels in small, uncovered, microwave-safe bowl on MEDIUM-HIGH (70%) power for 45 seconds; STIR. If pieces retain some of their original shape, microwave at additional 10- to 15-second intervals, stirring just until melted.

Step 6

Place 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar in medium bowl. Form a well; pour in melted butter, whipping cream, pinch of salt and melted chocolate. Stir until blended. If necessary, add remaining powdered sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, until pouring or drizzling consistency is reached. Spoon chocolate glaze over top of cake. Let stand until glaze is firm.
