The Best Chocolate Cake Ever


Another recipe I got from Kevin & Amanda's Recipes. It is labeled the best chocolate cake ever, even though it was delicious, I have eaten alot of GOOOOD chocolate cake. It was actually quite simple to make and tasted of extreme chocolate.

Ingredients:
1 box devil’s food cake mix
1 pkg. Jell_O instant chocolate pudding mix
1 c. sour cream
1 c. vegetable oil
4 eggs, beaten
1/2 c. milk
1 t. vanilla
2 c. mini semisweet chocolate chips

Instructions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a VERY large bowl (4 qt), mix together everything except chocolate chips. Batter will be thick. Stir in the chocolate chips. Pour batter into cake pan of choice (I normally use two 9-inch pie pans). For cooking time, I use the cooking times on the back of the devil’s food cake box as a guide and usually add 10 mins to whatever it says. Then I do the toothpick check, and if it’s not done, I check on it every 5 mins after that. It usually takes around 45 mins for two, 9-inch pie pans.

Buttercream Frosting

Ingredients:
1 c. shortening (Crisco)
4 c. powdered sugar
1/4 tsp. salt
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1/3 c. heavy whipping cream

Directions:
In a mixing bowl, cream shortening until fluffy. Add sugar and continue creaming until well blended. Add salt, vanilla, and whipping cream. Blend on low speed until moistened. Beat at high speed until frosting is fluffy.
