• In the bowl of an electric mixer with the paddle attachment, beat the butter until smooth. Add the cocoa powder and powdered sugar and beat until well combined.

Then spread with 1/4 cup caramel topping. Place another cake layer, bottom side up, on the caramel and spread with more frosting and another 1/4 cup caramel.

UPDATED TUNNEL OF FUDGE CAKE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350 F.
• Measure flour by lightly spooning the flour into the measuring cup, NOT by scooping the measuring cup into the flour. The scoop-and-level method is incorrect and will make this cake too dry.
• In a large bowl, combine butter, white sugar and brown sugar and beat until mixture is light and fluffy. Add melted and cooled chocolate, beating until combined.
• Add eggs, one at a time, beating thoroughly after each addition until eggs combine with butter mixture (this can take some time).
• Sift the confectioners' sugar BEFORE you measure it. Gradually add it to the batter, mixing well. By hand, stir in flour, cocoa, vanilla, and pecans until well blended.
• Spray a 12-cup Bundt pan with nonstick baking spray combined with flour. Spoon batter into prepared pan. Bake at 350 F for 48 to 54 minutes, until crust looks dry and shiny ( traditional doneness tests won't work because of the soft fudge center).
• Cool cake in pan on a rack for 1 hour, then invert onto serving plate and remove pan. Cool completely. If you bake the cake for a shorter period of time, it will have true fudge in the center. Bake it longer for a moist tunnel in the center.
• Make the glaze by placing the chocolate chips and oil in a small microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on 50 percent power for 2 minutes and then stir. Continue microwaving until chocolate is melted and the mixture is smooth.
• Pour into a small zip-top bag. Cut a tiny piece off the corner of the bag and pipe the chocolate over the cake, using a back-and-forth motion. Let cool.

FUDGE CAKE WITH STOUT GLAZE

Steps:

• For the cake: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a 6-cup Bundt pan with nonstick cooking spray.
• Beat the butter and sugar in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Pour the coffee over the top and beat until the butter is fully melted. Add the eggs one at a time, then continue to beat until the sugar is dissolved and the mixture is very smooth.
• Reduce the mixer speed to medium-low and beat in the flour, cocoa powder, salt, sour cream and almond extract until just combined. Pour into the Bundt pan and bake until a cake tester inserted center comes out clean, 40 to 45 minutes. Cool completely in the pan on a baking rack, about 30 minutes, and then invert onto the rack and turn right-side up. Put the rack over a baking sheet.
• For the glaze: Bring the heavy cream to a simmer in a medium saucepan over medium-low heat. Whisk in the chocolate, confectioners¿ sugar and stout until the chocolate melts. Poke holes in the cooled cake with a toothpick, pour the warm glaze over and let set a few minutes before slicing. The cake will keep for 2 days at room temperature.
