-
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Using a paper towel, lightly coat Bundt pan with coconut oil.

-
Spoon 1/3 of the cake batter into Bundt pan and sprinkle with half the walnut mixture. Spoon another 1/3 of the cake batter into pan, and sprinkle with remaining walnut mixture. Cover with remaining cake batter.

Bake 50 to 55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in cake comes out clean. Let cool 10 to 15 minutes, then invert onto serving platter; cool completely then top with Chocolate Glaze (see Note).
Chocolate Glaze
In a microwaveable bowl, melt 1/2 cup chocolate chips in the microwave, stirring every 30 seconds until chocolate is melted. Stir in 1 tablespoon coconut oil then allow glaze to cool and thicken slightly. Pour over top of cooled cake, allowing glaze to drip down sides. Allow to set before serving.
Note:
To melt the coconut oil, place it in a measuring cup and microwave it in 15 second intervals until it's pourable.
