Equipment

  • 9x5 loaf pans (2)
  • Large Bowl
  • Hand mixer
  • Microwave Safe Bowl

Ingredients

  • 15.25 ounces chocolate cake mix 1 box
  • 3.4 ounces instant chocolate pudding mix 1 box
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • ⅓ cup vegetable oil
  • 4 eggs
  • ½ cup water
  • 2½ cups mini chocolate chips divided

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Grease and flour (I used Baker's Joy) 2 9x5 inch loaf pans.
  • Combine cake mix, pudding mix, sour cream, vegetable oil, eggs, water, and 1 cup chocolate chips in a large bowl and beat on medium speed with an electric mixer for 1-2 minutes.
  • Pour half of the batter into each of the prepared pans.
  • Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick stuck in the center of the loaf comes out clean.
  • Let cool in loaf pan for about 30 minutes, then remove from pan and let cool completely.
  • Melt 1 cup chocolate chips in the microwave in 30 second intervals, stirring in between, until melted and smooth. Drizzle over the top of each cake.
  • Sprinkle remaining 1/2 cup chocolate chips over the top.
  • Cut into pieces and serve.

Notes

We think it tastes great with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top!
