This is definitely a cheater recipe, starting with both a chocolate cake mix and chocolate pudding mix. But it is easy, delicious and super-moist. Perfect. And baked in a bundt pan it makes a beautiful dessert suitable for serving company.
This is especially delicious served with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top of each slice.
RECIPE:
Triple Chocolate Bundt Cake
1 box chocolate cake mix (I used a dark chocolate fudge flavor)
1 small box (3.9 oz) instant chocolate pudding mix
1 cup sour cream
1 cup vegetable oil
4 eggs
½ cup warm water
1 cup finely chopped bittersweet chocolate
Preheat oven to 350°F . Grease and flour a bundt pan (or spray with baking non-stick cooking spray: the kind with flour in it).
In a large bowl, mix together the cake and pudding mixes, sour cream, oil, eggs and water. Stir in the chopped chocolate and pour batter into prepared bundt pan. Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool cake completely in the bundt pan for about 90 minutes.
Invert onto a serving plate and drizzle with glaze. If desired, serve each slice topped with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
Chocolate ganache glaze:
4 oz bittersweet chocolate, chopped (a little more than ½ cup)
½ cup heavy cream
2 Tbs corn syrup
1 Tbs granulated sugar
Place the chopped chocolate into a small bowl and set aside. In a Pyrex measuring cup or microwavable bowl, combine the heavy cream, corn syrup and sugar. Heat for 1 minute; stir. Pour the hot cream over the chopped chocolate. Let sit for one minutes, then stir until smooth with a whisk.
Use a spoon to generously drizzle the glaze over the cooled cake, allowing it to drip down the sides.

So do I mix according to package directions then add the eggs, water, and oil you listed or do I only use what you listed?

Don’t prepare the cake mix as directed on the box. Only use the ingredients listed in the recipe, not the ones listed on the box to make a regular cake. The cake mix should be added dry. Let me know if you have any other questions. Happy baking!

DOES THE CHOPPED CHOCOLATE MELT INTO THE CAKE, OR DOES IT STAY CHUNKY? HOW MUCH DO YOU CHOP IT..CHUNKY OR FINE?

Sorry for the late reply. The chocolate chunks do not completely melt into the cake, but if you chop them into fairly small pieces, they are not noticeable chunks. I use the larger Ghiradelli 60% chocolate chips, and I think these are too large to leave whole, so I coarsely chop them.
