Method

01
Preheat the oven to 180°C, grease your bundt and set aside. 
02
Put the carob powder in a bowl and add 200ml boiling water and stir until smooth. 
03
In a separate bowl, sieve the flour with the baking powder, cardamon powder and sugar. Add the eggs, vanilla and butter to the cocoa mixture and beat for 1 min using an electric whisk.
04
Gradually add the egg mixture to the flour mix, whisking well after each addition. Pour the mixture into the greased tin and bake for 45-50 mins. Let it cool in the tin for 10 mins, then turn out onto a cooling rack.
05
To make the chocolatey icing, simply add the carob powder to the icing sugar and some water to create a thick yet pourable consistency. Pour over your cooled bundt and decorate with Christmas decorations as desired. Enjoy!
