Best Chocolate Cake... Ever

If you want to get a chocolate fix in a very easy way that looks quite impressive, here is how:

Cake

Best Chocolate Cake Ever1) Grease Bundt Cake Pan

2) Preheat Oven to 350 degrees

3) Mix together

  • 1 package Devil Food Cake Mix
  • 1 (5.9 oz) package instant chocolate pudding mix
  • 1 cup sour cream (low fat tastes just as good)
  • 1 cup vegetable oil (canola oil is better for you)
  • 4 eggs
  • 1/2 cup warm water
  • 2 cups semisweet chocolate chips

4) Bake for 50-55 minutes, until top is springy and wooden toothpick when inserted comes out clean

5) Cool cake thoroughly in the pan for at least 90 minutes before inverting onto plate

Frosting/Topping

From here you can keep it tame and serve with a little powdered sugar on the top, or go on to make it an amazing cake by topping the cake with the frosting as per below:

Mix Together

  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) softened butter or margarine (again, use the lowest fat content you can)
  • 2/3 cup cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Alternately add portions of ingredients listed below until all mixed in:

  • 1/3 cup milk (skim milk works fine)
  • 3 cups powdered sugar

Put on the top and let it run down the sides of the chocolate of all chocolate cakes. Enjoy!
