THIS IS THE BEST CHOCOLATE CAKE RECIPE! I got this recipe at a youth activity when I was in high school, put it in my recipe box and never made it. Well a few months ago, I was looking through my recipes and found it and decided to try it out. The recipe was called “Crock pot Chocolate Surprise!” and I thought “how could that not be amazing?”
Well I didn’t plan ahead enough so I decided to just make it in the oven and it worked out perfect. I have yet to try it in the crock pot…because who wants to wait 6 hours to eat chocolate cake? But I am sure that it would be extra moist and delicious in the crock pot.
Seriously, this recipe is SO GOOD and SO EASY! It is just a few more ingredients than a normal cake mix and it is a million times better. I really will never make a normal cake mix cake again!
The Best Chocolate Cake
1 package chocolate cake mix
8 oz sour cream
1 large package chocolate pudding
1 cup chocolate chips
3/4 cup cooking oil
4 eggs
1 cup water
Mix together and either:
Put in a sprayed crock pot on low for 6-8 hours
Spray 9×13 pan and cook at 350 degrees for 35-40 minutes
I have also halved the recipe and it still works great. I mix together the cake mix and the pudding mix (which equals 4 cups) separate the mixture in half and use 2 cups for the recipe and put the other half in an air tight container and use another day. I put the cake in an 8×8 pan and cook for 25 minutes.
I think this would be great for cupcakes! I have also wanted to try white cake mix, vanilla pudding, and white chocolate chips, I am sure that it would be so yummy too!
I hope that you make this cake! 🙂 You will be a changed cake maker!
