Pete's chocolate cake


Pete loves chocolate cake. Really super, chocolatey cake. The last few years I have made this cake for Pete from The Cake Doctor cookbook. It is such a great cake, I thought I would share it with you all.


Darn Good Chocolate Cake


1 devil food cake mix

1 (3.9) package of chocolate pudding

4 eggs

1 cup sour cream

1/2 cup warm water

1/2 cup oil (or apple sauce)

1 1/2 cups chocolate chips


Mix all together, bake in a greased Bundt pan at 350 for 45-50 mins


Pan Frosting:

1 stick butter

4 tbls unsweetened cocoa

1/3 cup whole milk

4 cups confectioners sugar


melt butter in med saucepan. Add cocoa and milk, bring to a boil, remove from heat and stir in sugar until frosting is thick and smooth. Frost while warm onto a cool cake. Serve cake with raspberries and vanilla ice cream.


Hope your family enjoys it as much as we do!

I bet my family would love this. Thanks for sharing. While they're eating the cake, I could indulge in rasperries and ice cream!

So...did you get a piece? Didn't you tell me you gave up sugar?
