This is a great sweet bake for Easter. An Easter turban with chocolate is SUPER fun and tasty. A cake to serve around coffee (or tea) time. Chocolate eggs are hidden in the bundt cake, and I don't know anyone who doesn't want to find a chocolate egg in a slice! The cake is creamy and fluffy. A delicious treat that is easy to make.

Instructions
Preparation
Preheat the oven to 320 °F (160 °C).
Brush the bundt cake tin with butter and then dust with flour. You do this by scooping two tablespoons of flour into the tin and then turning that around and beating, so that the flour is everywhere. Then you tap the remaining flour out of the form.
2 tablespoons butter, 2 tablespoons flour
Preparing the batter
Mix the butter with the sugar and salt for three minutes on high speed.
1⅓ stick butter, ¾ cups sugar, ⅙ teaspoon salt
Add in the eggs one by one while mixing. Only add the next egg when the previous one is incorporated.
3 eggs
Add the vanilla extract
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Mix for one more minute at high speed.
Sift the flour and baking powder over the batter. Mix on low speed until the flour is just incorporated into the batter.
1¼ cups flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder
Spoon the batter into the turban shape and smooth the top.
Spread the chocolate Easter eggs on top of the batter.
8 chocolate eggs
Baking
Place the turban tin in the oven and bake for 60 minutes.
Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly for 5 minutes.
Then remove the cake from the tin and let it cool further on a rack.
TIP: For an even more Easter decoration, fill the inside of the cake with chocolate eggs.
