Ummmm chocolate cake.....

*sigh*

This was SO.DAMN.GOOD. Like I cut this EVERYTIME I walked past the table good!!!

Need a good chocolate cake recipe for Valentine's Day?!?!

TRY THIS ONE LOL. (Kayla decided that since we had some extra chocolate left it would be good on the cake lol)

What you need:

• 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

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2. 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.
3. 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 If desired, dust the cake with powdered sugar.

Add this Satiny Chocolate Glaze for more chocolate goodness...

What you need:

• 3/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips
• 3 tablespoons butter
• 1 tablespoon light corn syrup
• 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions:

1. In a double boiler over hot, but not boiling water, combine chocolate chips, butter and corn syrup. Stir until chips are melted and mixture is smooth, then add vanilla.
2. Spread warm glaze over top of cake, letting it drizzle down the sides.

**Disclaimer** Now hopefully you will like this cake if you make it. It was a TOTAL hit at my house, and my guests LOVED it. 

When ever I try a new recipe I ALWAYS follow it exactly the first time. NEXT time I make this I will omit the chocolate chips and use my chocolate cake recipe. Other than that it was REALLY good. This is only the 2nd time I've used a box cake mix and I will share that other recipe next time.

If you try it let me know how you like it!

Toodles!!!

[Flora]

OMG!!! Chocolate is my all-time favorite food. (It really should have its own food group.) I can't wait to try this, and I'll be sure to blame you if I eat it by myself. LOL!!!

[urbanknitrix]

I am not a BIG chocolate person. However by bestest girlfriend is so I would definitely make this for her. She is so bad, I mean REALLY bad.

Thanks for the recipe, sounds like a keepter and it looks oh so good.

[shai]

[Rachel]

Just looking at that cake makes me want to go through the computer screen and bite into it.

[Thomisia]

Why must thou tempt me this early in the day...ugh!

[Freaky Deaky]

Poor cake can't even sit out in the kitchen and enjoy itself without someone hacking off pieces or otherwise molesting it.

With that said, I want some!

[karen j]

Yummy! my kids love anything chocolate

[Cennetta]

Looks fabulous... and easy! Perfect! I'm making a cake this weekend and may have to try this for it--with my chocolate buttercream frosting on top. LOL

[Cassandra]

Looks good! I don't eat that much chocolate but I would make it for a party. I think it would go over big!

[Dei]

Oh, Heavenly Father, Lawd Jesus help me! Why, why did you have to post that?! Girl you know I'm in the 12 step program for recovering choco-holics! Where's the love?

[Dana]

[Tanya]

That looks delicious but I just can't buy a box cake mix. I have a recipe for a chocolate sour cream cake and this one sounds like it. I can't make a cake I'm still trying to loose holiday pounds.

[Dani/Sherri(I never remember which name I use)]

I must not have told you that me and several other ladies have banded together over email to eat better/exercise so we can feel healthy and look hot.

I didn't tell you that, did I?

You do know my stomach is sitting here telling me "You know we gon' make this, right?"

And I can't get mad at my stomach at all. *LOL*

So...to retaliate... http://bakerella.blogspot.com/2009/01/thaaank-you-betty.html

[Tiffany]

Oh My gosh!!!! That cake looks so good. I am going to have to give it a try. U are going to make me gain an extra five pounds, Adrienne!!!

[Nikki]

I was reading the recipe and thought "Adrienne used a box recipe??? What is the world coming to???" lol. I know you usually do your thang from scratch, you don't play AT ALL.

[Charlene McGill]

Hello Adrienne,

Do you have a receipe for a lemon cake?

My Hubby brought me a kitchenAid. My daughter and I are eager to use it. We will be using your chocolate cake receipe also.

[Cynthia]

I made this for my daughter who has food allergies. I had to substitute the cake mix,sour cream and eggs but it gave me a great starting point. She loved it! In fact, I have the "real" recipe and one for her in the oven right now! I can't wait to taste the "real" thing!
