This is a decadent and rich moist dark chocolate cake recipe, but it's quick & easy as a boxed cake mix is used. You can make this simple in a bundt pan & serve without frosting with just a dusting of confectioners sugar... or you can prepare it our favorite way by making it into a delicious layer cake using canned or homemade dark chocolate frosting... This is my hubby's favorite that I make for him on Valentine's Day and his Birthday every year...
Ingredients:
1 (18 1/4 ounce) box dark chocolate cake mix (duncan hines moist deluxe)
1/3 cup vegetable oil
1 cup water
3 large eggs
2 tablespoons sour cream (heaping tablespoons)
1 1/2 cups milk chocolate chips
cooking spray (bakers joy works best)
1 (18 ounce) can ready to spread dark chocolate frosting (optional)
Directions:
