Ingredients
- 1 box (approximately 15.25 ounces) chocolate cake mix with pudding
- 1 box (3.9 ounces) instant chocolate pudding mix
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1/3 cup Kahlua (coffee liqueur)
- 3/4 cup vegetable oil
- 4 large eggs
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- Powdered sugar, for dusting
Instructions
-
Preparation:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a Bundt pan to prevent sticking.
-
Mixing the Batter:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the chocolate cake mix, instant chocolate pudding mix, sour cream, Kahlua, vegetable oil, and eggs. Mix until well combined and smooth.
-
Adding Chocolate Chips:
- Gently fold in the chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
-
Baking:
- Pour the batter into the prepared Bundt pan, spreading it evenly. Place the pan in the preheated oven.
-
Bake:
- Bake for 45 to 55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Baking times may vary depending on your oven, so start checking for doneness around the 45-minute mark.
-
Cooling:
- Once baked, remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for about 15 minutes.
-
Removing from Pan:
- Carefully invert the Bundt pan onto a wire rack to release the cake. Let the cake cool completely.
-
Finishing Touches:
- Transfer the cooled cake onto a serving platter or cake stand. Dust generously with powdered sugar just before serving.
