Serves 6-8
Note: This recipe uses a Bundt pan.
1 package Devil's Food plain cake mix (no pudding in the mix)
1 3.9-oz package chocolate instant pudding
4 large eggs
1 cup sour cream (low fat or fat free may be used)
1/2 cup warm water
1/2 cup vegetable oil (1/2 cup applesauce is a fat-free substitute)
1 cup chocolate chips
1. Spray the Bundt pan with flour spray ("Pam for Baking"). In an electric mixer, combine cake mix, pudding, eggs, sour cream, warm water, and vegetable oil/applesauce in a mixer and beat for 1 minute.
2. Increase speed to medium, and beat 2-3 minutes. Reduce to lowest speed, and fold in chocolate chips.
3. Pour batter into the Bundt pan, and bake at 350 degrees for 45-50 minutes. Cool for 20 minutes, and invert onto cooling rack. To serve, lightly dust with powdered sugar.
Apparently, this recipe can be made fat-free, by using fat-free sour cream and pudding, and substituting applesauce for the oil. I have had it prepared this way before, and it is so rich you would not believe it!
This is REALLY good. When I was teaching preschool, one of the mom's made this cake for us. She is a doctor, and that's why there are healthy substitutions. Let me tell you--it is soooo good!
