Hey Everyone, welcome back to Coffee Talk Saturday.
The other day on Story Time Monday I posted a picture of a cake decorated like the Canadian flag and made a reference to it that it is the best chocolate cake ever. I have had a request for the recipe so here it is. The recipe came from a friend of ours when we were living in Yellowknife – the cake has certainly become the cake of choice as our birthday cakes in this house.
The first time I had the cake I was blown away with how moist it was and figured it was completely from scratch. Boy was I surprised to find out it was a cake mix with a few extras added in.
I pulled the ingredients out of the bag and set them up to be photographed and asked Michael to take a photo. He saw what he had to photograph and thought I was making it for desert tonight and his face totally lit up but then quickly fell as I told him I was not turning the oven on in this heat. [Editor’s note: flattened. Absolutely flattened. Good thing there was still some Chelsea Bun in the cupboard from the other day.]
Teresa’s Devil’s Food Cake
Ingredients
1 – Devil’s Food Cake Mix – I use Duncan Hines
1 – package chocolate instant pudding mix
1 cup sour cream
½ cup vegetable oil
½ cup warm water
4 eggs
1 ½ cups chocolate chips
Preparation
Mix the first 2 ingredients, then add the rest and mix well. Stir in the chocolate chips.
Put mixture into a bunt pan – makes for easy cutting of pieces but any cake pan will do.
Bake
Cook at 350 degrees for 55 – 60 min.
Serve & Eat
Cool and turn out onto plate, dust with icing sugar.
I like the cake served warm with ice cream, berries and whip cream. Enjoy!
Happy Quilting & Eating!
I hear you on not turning the oven on in this heat! That is, if I had an oven… Lol.
Thanks so much for sharing the recipe, Jen!
Yep, way to muggy to turn on the oven today.
I too want to offer my thanks. Have this printed out and will try soon if our heat in Arizona lightens up
That’s great Ruth, hopefully you will get a cool day soon to turn that oven on.
Jen, I saw your bargello instructions earlier today and went back in tonight to copy them, and poof……..they were no longer there. Can you send them again…….I love it! Thanks.
