Mexican Chocolate Cake Recipe

1 box chocolate cake mix (18.25 oz)
1 package chocolate pudding mix (3.9 oz)
1 container of sour cream (16 oz)
3 eggs
1/2 cup canola oil
1/2 cup milk
2 Tbsp. cinnamon
2 cups chocolate chips

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease and lightly flour a Bundt pan. Combine all ingredients in a large bowl, except chocolate chips, mix well. Fold in chips and pour into prepared pan.

(For a nice extra touch,I dust the pan with Sparkling sugar before pouring in the mixture. You can find that here)

This mixture is thicker than most cake mixes, spread around the pan. Bake for 50-60 minutes, depending on the type of pan. It is done when it springs back when touched.

Please, be extra cautious to not overbake this. We like it a bit gooey vs. crumbly.

Set on a wire rack, cool 15 minutes, Running knife along the edge first, turn out of the pan and let cool completely. Sprinkle with powdered sugar for garnish.

This is a consistent crowd-pleaser, and easy to make (like all of our “secret” recipes should be!) If you’d like a free printable recipe card, click here. Enjoy!
