The title explains it all.
:)




Ingredients:
Vegetable Oil (for misting the pan)
Flour (for dusting the pan)
1 pkg plain devil's food or dark chocolate fudge cake mix
1 pkg chocolate instant pudding
4 large eggs
1 cup sour cream
1/2 cup warm water
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1 1/2 cups of semi-sweet chocolate chips

Directions:

1. Place a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 350. Lightly mist a bundt pan with vegetable oil spray, then dust with flour. Shake out the excess flour. Set pan aside.

2. Place the cake mix, pudding mix, eggs, sour cream, warm water & oil in a large mixing bowl. Blend with an electric mixer on slow for 1 minute, then increase speed to medium, (scrape sides as needed). The batter should look thick and well combined. Fold in chocolate chips, making sure they are well distributed throughout the batter. Pour batter into the prepared pan, smoothing it out with a rubber spatula. Place the pan in the oven.

3. Bake the cake until it springs back when lightly pressed with your finger and just starts to pull away from the sides of the pan, 45-50 minutes. Remove the pan from the oven and place it on a wire rack to cool for 20 minutes. run a long, sharp knife around the edge of the cake & invert it onto the rack to cool completely for 20 more minutes or serve while its still warm.
