Ingredients
- 1 box Chocolate cake mix
- 2 tablespoons Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 package (3.4 oz) Instant chocolate pudding mix
- 4 large Eggs
- 1 cup Whole milk
- 0.5 cup Vegetable oil
- 1 cup Sour cream
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 cup Semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 tablespoon Butter (for greasing the pan)
- 1 tablespoon Flour (for dusting the pan)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Step 2
Grease a 9x13-inch baking pan with the butter and lightly dust it with flour. Tap out any excess flour.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, combine the chocolate cake mix, unsweetened cocoa powder, and instant chocolate pudding mix. Stir until the dry ingredients are evenly blended.
Step 4
Add the eggs, whole milk, vegetable oil, sour cream, and vanilla extract to the dry mixture. Mix on low speed using a hand or stand mixer just until the ingredients are combined. Increase the speed to medium and beat for 2 minutes, scraping down the sides occasionally.
Step 5
Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips using a spatula.
Step 6
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or with just a few moist crumbs.
Step 8
Remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for 15 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 9
Serve as is, or top with your favorite frosting, whipped cream, or a dusting of powdered sugar.
