Ingredients
- 1 box (15.25 oz) chocolate cake mix
- 1 box (3.9 oz) instant chocolate pudding mix
- 4 large eggs
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 1/2 cup warm water
- 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup heavy cream (for ganache)
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (for ganache)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a bundt pan.
- In a large bowl, mix together cake mix, pudding mix, eggs, sour cream, oil, and warm water until well combined.
- Stir in 2 cups of chocolate chips.
- Pour the batter evenly into the prepared bundt pan.
- Bake for 50–55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
- Let the cake cool in the pan for 10–15 minutes, then invert onto a wire rack to cool completely.
- To make the ganache, heat the heavy cream until just boiling, then pour over 1 cup of chocolate chips. Let sit for 2–3 minutes, then stir until smooth.
- Drizzle the ganache over the cooled cake before serving.
Notes
- Ensure the cake is fully cooled before adding ganache to prevent it from melting off.
- Use mini chocolate chips for a more even distribution in the batter.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
- This cake tastes even better the next day as the flavors deepen.
