Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 F.
Cream butter with white and brown sugars until light and fluffy, then beat in cooled melted chocolate.
Incorporate eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
Sift confectioners' sugar, then gradually add to batter. By hand, stir in flour, cocoa, vanilla, and pecans until blended.
Prepare a 12-cup Bundt pan with nonstick spray. Pour batter into the pan and bake at 350 F for 48 to 54 minutes, or until the crust appears dry and shiny.
Cool cake in the pan on a rack for 1 hour before inverting onto a serving plate to cool completely.
For the glaze, microwave chocolate chips and oil at 50% power, stirring periodically, until smooth.
Transfer glaze to a small zip-top bag, snip a corner, and pipe over the cake. Allow to cool.
