A friend of ours had a baby recently so we took her a chocolate cake. Because cake and babies go hand in hand you know.
As I was making it I thought, “This cake is SO GOOD the recipe really should be shared with the world.” Then I realized, oh yeah, it has been. On a nice little recipe site called All Recipes. But well, I thought it couldn’t hurt for it to be shared yet again with you because it really is one of the best chocolate cakes I’ve ever tried. It is moist and rich and oh so chocolaty. Just look at all that chocolate:
It is a really easy cake that uses a box cake mix as the base. Simply mix together:
1 Chocolate Boxed Cake Mix (I like Duncan Hines Dark Chocolate Fudge)
1 5.9 oz pkg instant chocolate pudding
4 eggs
1 cup sour cream
3/4 cup water
3/4 cup oil
The batter will be REALLY thick. I think it is the pudding mix that makes it so thick like that. Stir in 1/2 of a 12 oz bag of mini chocolate chips. Put into a greased bundt pan. Bake at 350 for 50 to 55 minutes or until a toothpick stuck in the center comes out clean. Let cool in the pan for 30 minutes or so and then invert onto a plate.
For the icing, melt the other half of bag of the mini chocolate chips together with 1/4 cup of butter. I usually melt them in the microwave for 20 seconds, then stir, 20 seconds, then stir and repeat until it is nice and smooth. Spread over cake.
This cake is best eaten warm and with a nice big scoop of vanilla ice cream. So good it is sinful!!!!!
