Are all bundt cakes dry?
My Mom asked that I bring a cake for Easter and since my Dad likes bundt cakes, she suggested that. He's asking for "chocolate cake with white frosting".
I've made bundt cakes before and they seem to come out dry 
Anything fudgy & brownie like?

dang! I must be doing something very wrong!
Any favorite recipes to share?
This is my favorite one. It comes out moist and fudgey.

This sounds like a triple chocolate bundt cake that my mother made when I was growing up. It's super easy, best if made the day ahead and moist and yummy! I still make this on occasion (even though it's not from scratch.) My friends affectionately call it "The Bundt."
Chocolate Chip Cake
Preheat the oven- 350 degrees
spray and flour a bundt pan.
1 box of Duncan Hines "Deep Dark Chocolate Cake" (Honestly... any chocolate cake mix is fine. I've used Devils Food before.)
1 small box of instant chocolate pudding mix
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1 cup water
1 cup sour cream
4 eggs
6oz bag of chocolate chips
Beat together the first six ingredients for four minutes.
Stir in the chocolate chips and transfer the mixture to the prepared bundt pan.
bake 350 degrees for 1 hour.
Before serving, lightly dust with powdered sugar. I like to serve this with Baileys whipped cream, but vanilla ice cream works well also.
The leading cause of dry cakes is overbaking. It could be that your oven temp is too high, or just that you are leaving it in for too long. Have you checked the temperature in your oven to make sure that it is calibrated correctly?
