Instructions

Preparations

  • Preheat the oven on 170 degrees Celsius or 340 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Use a brush to divide the butter (other ingredients) in the bundt cake pan.

The Batter

  • Add the butter to the bowl and use a handmixer to beat the butter light and fluffy. Then add the powdered sugar and eggs.
  • When mixed, you can add the baking powder, eggnog, flour and grated zest of one lemon. Mix shortly until you have a smooth batter.
  • Mix the dried cranberries with 2 tablespoons of flour. When the cranberries are all covered with some flour, you can add them to the batter. Stir the batter for a last time.

Baking

  • Pour the batter in the bundt cake pan. Bake the cake for about 1 hour and 15 minutes in the preheated oven.

Topping

  • Break the chocolate in the heat resistant bowl. Bring some water to a boil and place the heat resistant bowl on the cooking pot. When the chocolate is completely melted, you can pour it on the cooled down baked cake.
  • Top with the easter eggs and let the chocolate set.
