Darn Good Chocolate Cake

Darn Good Chocolate Cake!

That's what that is...

Yeah, my favorite cake is chocolate, and not just any old chocolate cake mix from a box, this one's a gut-busting, heap of melt-in-your-mouth kind of fudge, chocolate cake that will boost your calorie intake 100 fold :)
So yeah, it's that good, and I love it.

Recipe:

1 package (18.25 ounces) plain devil's food or dark chocolate fudge cake mix

1 package (3.9 ounces) chocolate instant pudding mix

4 large eggs

1 cup sour cream 

1/2 cup warm water

1/2 cup vegetable oil

1 1/2 cups semisweet chocolate chips

Directions:

1. Heat oven to 350 degrees F. Mist 12-cup bundt pan with oil spray and then lightly dust with flour.

2. Place cake mix, pudding mix, eggs, sour cream, warm water, and oil in a large mixing bowl. Blend with an electric mixer for one minute on low speed, stop and scrape down sides with rubber spatula. Increase the mixer speed to medium for 2-3 minutes. Batter should look thick and well combined. Fold in the chocolate chips, making sure they are well distributed throughout the batter. Pour the batter into the prepared pan, smoothing it out with the rubber spatula. Place the pan in the oven.

3. Bake the cake for 45-50 minutes. Remove from pan and place it on a wire rack to cool for 20 minutes.
