Cake Ingredients

1 box chocolate cake mix The foundation for a rich, chocolatey flavor. Use any brand you prefer!
1 box instant chocolate pudding mix Adds moistness and a velvety texture. You can experiment with vanilla pudding for a different flavor twist.
4 large eggs Binds the ingredients and gives structure. For egg-free options, use flaxseed meal mixed with water.
1 cup sour cream Key ingredient for moisture and tanginess. Greek yogurt works well as a substitute.
1 cup water Keeps the cake batter flowing smoothly. Replace with milk for a richer flavor.
1/2 cup vegetable oil Helps keep your cake tender. Melted coconut oil can be used as an alternative.
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips Provides bursts of melty goodness. Dark chocolate chips make for a more intense flavor.

Finishing Touches

to taste powdered sugar For dusting before serving.

Method

Preparation

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease and flour a Bundt pan.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the chocolate cake mix, instant chocolate pudding mix, eggs, sour cream, water, and vegetable oil. Stir until smooth and creamy.
Gently fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips, distributing them evenly.

Baking

Pour the batter into the prepared Bundt pan and smooth the top.
Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
Allow cooling in the pan for about 10 minutes before inverting onto a wire rack to cool completely.

Serving

Dust with powdered sugar before serving and pair with whipped cream or ice cream as desired.

Notes

Allow the cake to cool completely before dusting with powdered sugar to prevent clumping. Experiment with toppings like ganache or whipped cream for extra flair.
