Chocolate Bundt Cake

I am not much of a baker, I will be the first to admit that.  Baking is tough, you can't really improvise.  It's like if you make one mistake the whole thing is shot.  If I am able to have something come out right, it has to be easy.  :)  I made this for my sister in law's birthday, and it went over a big hit.

Chocolate Bundt Cake

1 (18.25 ounce) package devil's food cake mix
1 (5.9 ounce) package instant chocolate pudding mix
1 cup sour cream
1 cup vegetable oil
4 eggs
1/2 cup warm water
2 cups semisweet chocolate chips


Preheat oven to 350 degrees

In a large bowl, mix together the cake and pudding mixes, sour cream, oil, beaten eggs and water. Stir in the chocolate chips and pour batter into a well greased 12 cup bundt pan.

Bake for 50 to 55 minutes, or until top is springy to the touch and a wooden toothpick inserted comes out clean. Cool cake thoroughly in pan at least an hour and a half before inverting onto a plate. Dust the cake with powdered sugar.

I had to actually bake this a but longer, it was about an 1 hour and 10 minutes.  It still was pretty moist and tasty though.  I have also seen pictures with melted chocolate over the top, but of course....I don't know how to do that.  I went with the less pretty powdered sugar.

  1. With all that chocolate I can't imagine it not being a hit. It's a chocoholic's dream come true. I have a sweet treat linky party going on at my blog and I'd like to invite you to stop by and link your cake up. http://sweet-as-sugar-cookies.blogspot.com/2011/03/sweets-for-saturday-8.html
