Eva Smith, 99, Birmingham, Ala. (grandma of Margaret Barnhart, All You
integrated account manager) "My cake is constantly being requested for
birthdays."
Ingredients :
1 box German chocolate cake mix (size that fills a 12-cup Bundt pan)
1 3.9-oz. box instant chocolate pudding mix
1 cup sour cream
4 large eggs
1/2 cup vegetable oil
2 1/2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
1/4 cup heavy cream
How to Make It :
Step 1
Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease and flour a 12-cup Bundt pan.
Step 2
Whisk cake and pudding mixes in a large bowl. In another large bowl, with an electric mixer on medium speed, beat sour cream until lightened, about 3 minutes. Beat in eggs until well combined. Add oil and 1/2 cup warm water; beat until smooth. Reduce speed to low. Beat in cake mix mixture in 2 batches until no lumps remain, about 3 minutes. Stir in 2 cups chocolate chips.
Step 3
Bake until a tester inserted into cake comes out clean, about 1 hour. Let cake cool on a wire rack for 10 minutes, then remove from pan and allow to cool completely on wire rack.
Step 4
Make glaze: Stir together heavy cream and remaining 1/2 cup chocolate chips in a microwavable cup. Microwave for 1 minute at 50 percent power. Whisk until smooth. Pour over cake. Serve.
