Preparation Time: 5 minutes
Cooking Time: 15 minutes
Total Time: 20 minutes
Servings: 12
Yield: 1 cake
Ingredients:
| Quantity | Ingredient |
|---|---|
| 1/4 | eggs |
| 3 | sour cream |
| 1 | cinnamon |
| 1 | sugar |
| 6 | chocolate morsels (divided) |
| 2 | almonds |
| 1 | cake mix |
| 1 1/2 | teaspoons of cinnamon |
Instructions:
-
Preparation: Lightly spray a Fluted Pan with vegetable spray, or brush it with vegetable oil using a pastry brush.
-
Mix Eggs and Sour Cream: In a mixing bowl, whisk together eggs and sour cream until smooth.
-
Combine Dry Ingredients: Add cake mix, almonds, half of the chocolate morsels, and 1 1/2 teaspoons of cinnamon to the bowl. Mix until smooth.
-
Transfer Batter: Spoon the batter into the prepared pan, spreading it evenly.
-
Microwave: Place the pan in the microwave and cook the cake on HIGH for 11-14 minutes or until a cake tester inserted in the center comes out clean. The cake will be slightly moist on top near the center.
-
Cooling: Remove the cake from the microwave and transfer it to a Nonstick Cooling Rack. Let it stand for 10 minutes.
-
Invert Cake: Loosen the cake from the sides of the pan and invert it onto a serving plate. Let it cool for an additional 20 minutes.
-
Prepare Glaze: In a bowl, combine sugar and the remaining cinnamon. Sprinkle this mixture over the cake.
-
Make Chocolate Glaze: Place the remaining chocolate morsels and half of the whipped topping in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on HIGH for 15-30 seconds or until melted. Stir until smooth.
-
Drizzle Glaze: Pour the melted chocolate glaze over the cake.
-
Garnish: Garnish the cake with the remaining whipped topping.
Tips:
- If your microwave oven doesn’t have a built-in turntable, rotate the cake a quarter turn once after each 3-minute interval of cooking for even heating.
- To easily drizzle the glaze onto the cake, pour the glaze into one corner of a small, resealable plastic bag. Twist the top of the bag to seal it, then cut a small piece of the corner of the bag to allow the glaze to run through.
Enjoy this delightful Mexican Chocolate Cake with your loved ones! It’s a perfect treat for any occasion, and its rich flavors will surely impress everyone at the table. 🎉
