Chocolate Lover's Bundt Cake





This has to be the best chocolate cake I believe I have ever eaten.  I know that sounds funny considering I made it but when my husband, the non-sweet eater, asked for a second piece I knew I had come across magic!!  I choose to ice mine with cream cheese icing but to be honest I am sure it would be great just dusted with a little powdered sugar.  I have a huge weakness for cream cheese icing and the delight that follows with the licking of the beaters and the bowl!!!



Chocolate Lover's Bundt Cake


1 pkg devil's food cake mix
1 small pkg instant chocolate pudding
4 eggs
1 c oil
1/2 c water
1 c sour cream
1 tsp vanilla
1 c chocolate chips (milk or semi sweet)

Mix together all the ingredients, stirring in chocolate chips at the end. Pour into a well greased bundt pan and bake at 350 degrees for 45-55 min. or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean. Let cake cool in pan at least 20 min. before inverting onto a plate. Frost with your choice of icing.


Cream Cheese Icing


8 oz cream cheese, softened

1/2 stick butter, softened
1 tsp vanilla flavoring
2-3 T milk
1 box of powdered sugar

Cream the butter and cream cheese together until well blended.  Add vanilla flavoring and milk, blend.  Add powdered sugar a little at a time being sure to blend together well after each addition.  Add more milk as needed for consistency.

  3. This sounds Delicious. I am such a Chocoholic. And I don't like standard icing. The cream cheese icing would be just up my alley.
