Time 1h10m

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 chocolate cake mix, i used devils food
1 small package (3.4 oz) chocolate pudding ( i used chocolate fudge pudding )
1/2 c sour cream
1/2 c vegetable oil
1 c milk
4 eggs
2 c semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 c walnuts, chopped (optional)
GANACHE
4 oz semi sweet chocolate, chopped - ( i used chocolate chips )
1 - 1/2 Tbsp corn syrup
1/2 c heavy cream
1 - 1/2 Tbsp sugar
nuts for garnish ( optional )

Steps:

  • 1. Mix all ingredients except nuts and chips on low until well blended. Beat 2 minutes on high.
  • 2. Add nuts and chips.
  • 3. Pour into greased and floured bundt pan. Bake at 350 for 55-65 minutes. ( Check at 45 - 50 minutes. Mine was done at 50 minutes.
  • 4. Cool cake 10 minutes then turn out onto platter.
  • 5. Glaze preparation: Combine milk and sugar in a small saucepan and heat over low heat until sugar is melted and mixture is warm.
  • 6. Combine the chocolate and corn syrup in a medium mixing bowl and set aside.
  • 7. When the milk and sugar mixture is melted and warm, pour it over the chocolate and corn syrup. Let it sit for a minute to heat the chocolate, then whisk until smooth.
  • 8. Let it cool just slightly to thicken a little bit, then slowly pour it over the cooled cake. Garnishing with nuts is up to you. I think they looked nice against all of that chocolate.
  • 9. The cake is very moist, and very rich. I would slice smaller pieces to serve. Enjoy!
