  5. Pour the batter into the pan and bake for 50 minutes, until the center is set or a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. *If the cake starts to get to brown on top, place a piece of foil over it for the last 15-20 minutes of baking.
  6. Allow the cake to cool and then frost the top with chocolate frosting. Sprinkle nuts and chocolate chips on the top, if desired. 1 1/2 cups chocolate frosting, Extra chocolate chips and chopped nuts for decorating the top
