This is a lovely bundt cake. It tastes better on the second day, so its worth making it a day in advance. I didn't have any oranges so I left out the rind. Thanks for this quick and tasty recipe!

Ok, I'll admit, when I asked my host mother for a "bundt pan" I got nervous when I saw what she pulled out. I remembered that I have had "Bundt cake" before - and each time it was horribly dry and boring. So, I was expecting this to be the same. TO MY SURPRISE this was not boring. It was a bit on the dry side, however, the exciting combinations of ginger, nutmeg, cinnamon mixed with chocolate chips more than made up for it! I will make this again and fiddle with it to see what I can do to make it more moist. Thanks Kittengal for posting this recipe! You've changed my attitude towards "bundt cake". * This recipe was made and reviewed for ZaarTag. "Come and play it's delicious fun!" - Mimi Bobeck 11th May 2006
