Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease and flour a Bundt pan; set aside.
  2. In a large bowl, use an electric mixer on medium-high speed to beat together the cake mix, sour cream, dry pudding mix, water, oil, and eggs for about 2 minutes.
  3. Use a wooden spoon or a spatula to gently fold in the chocolate chips.
  4. Pour the batter into the prepared pan; tap on the counter once or twice to release air bubbles.
  5. Bake for 50 minutes – 1 hour, or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean. My cake is always done in 55 minutes, but the total baking time will vary.
  6. Let cake stand for 10 minutes. Invert on a cooling rack and remove cake from pan.
  7. Once cake is completely cool, dust with powdered sugar.

Notes

  • Grease the Bundt pan really well by coating with butter and then dusting with flour. Alternatively, you can use a cooking spray that's specifically made for baking (like this one). These options will ensure that your cake pops right out of the pan when it's done!
  • Let the sour cream and eggs come to room temperature. They will mix smoother into your cake batter.
  • Use full-fat sour cream for the best flavor and texture.
  • Do not over-bake the cake or it can become dry. Start checking for doneness by the 50-minute mark, since total baking times will vary depending on your personal oven and the type and color of Bundt pan that you use.
  • Don't leave the cake in the pan for too long after baking -- about 10-15 minutes is plenty. After that, condensation will start to form and the moisture will negatively impact the crust.
  • The cake gets better as it sits, so this is a nice dessert option to prepare the day before you plan to serve it. Wait to dust with powdered sugar until right before serving.
  • Loaf Cakes: If you don't have a Bundt pan, you can bake this cake in two loaf pans. The cooking time will be about the same or slightly shorter, typically 45-50 minutes in a 350°F oven.
  • If you don't have a box of yellow cake mix, use white cake mix, or try a double chocolate chip cake by using chocolate cake mix and chocolate pudding mix.
  • Use regular chocolate chips (milk chocolate, dark chocolate, semi-sweet, or white chocolate) in lieu of the mini chocolate chips.
  • Finish with vanilla glaze or make a super-decadent chocolate chip cake with chocolate ganache instead of dusting with powdered sugar. You can also omit the powdered sugar and eat the cake without any decoration or topping -- it's delicious either way!
