Mmmonika's Chocolate Cake

Mmmonika’s Chocolate Cake

1 package chocolate cake mix
1 package instant chocolate pudding mix
16 oz sour cream
1 cup melted butter
5 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 cups semisweet chocolate chips (not really necessary, at least Adam doesn't think so)

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease pan.

In a large bowl or your trust-y Kitchen Aid Mixer, stir together cake mix and pudding mix. Pour in sour cream, melted butter, eggs and vanilla. Beat on low speed until blended. Scrape bowl, and beat 4 minutes on medium speed. Blend in chocolate chips. Pour batter into prepared pan.

I always turn the pan 180 degrees half way through to even things out.

Bundt Pan - Bake in preheated oven for 50 minutes. Let cool before removing and frosting
Cupcakes – Bake 23 minutes. Let cool before removing and frosting.

Frosting
1/4 cup margarine, melted
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/3 cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 1/2 cups powdered sugar

In a large bowl, beat margarine and cocoa together until combined. Add milk and vanilla; beat until smooth. Pour in powdered sugar and beat for about 5 minutes. It should be light and fluffy.

This cake always turns out. It's a great one for any chocolate lover because it is super gooey in the middle.
