This recipe is very moist and rich. I have also made it in loaf pans, and given it away for holidays.

Directions
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease and flour a 10-inch Bundt pan or tube pan.
- Beat the butter and sugar with an electric mixer in a large bowl until light and fluffy. The mixture should be noticeably lighter in color. Add the room-temperature eggs one at a time, allowing each egg to blend into the butter mixture before adding the next. Mix in the water and vanilla.
- In another bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa, baking soda, cinnamon, allspice, and salt.
- Add dry ingredients to creamed mixture and mix well.
- Fold in chocolate chips and grated apple and mix until fully incorporated.
- Spoon batter into prepared pan. Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the cake comes out clean, 60 to 70 minutes.
- Cool on wire rack.
