The Best Rich and Moist Chocolate Cake

Are you craving a delicious chocolate cake?  This is the BEST rich and moist chocolate cake from a box mix that is unbelievably EASY to make!  This is a bakery-quality cake that anyone can make at home with common ingredients! 

Prep Time: 10 minutes
 Cook Time: 35 minutes
 Total Time: 45 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 cup warm water
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 1/2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 box Devil’s food cake mix
  • 1 small package instant chocolate pudding
  • 4 large eggs

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9 x 13-inch pan.
  2. Mix all ingredients except chocolate chips well. Then gently fold in chips.
  3. I always use a 9 x 13 pan, by 2 – 9 inch round pans can also be used.  Bake for 30 – 40 minutes until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

Recipe Notes

  1. Mix ingredients very well before adding chocolate chips
  2. Be careful not to add liquids to pudding mix only as it can begin to set up like pudding
  3. The pudding makes this cake so moist, but it also means the cake takes longer than normal to bake
  4. Baking times vary, so I use a toothpick to test the cake a couple of times to prevent burning
  5. The cake can be made in two 9 inch pans or in a 9 x 13-inch pan
  6. I always use store-bought icing to save time, but feel free to make homemade icing
