Pin It

I couldn't think of a name for this cake. I've made it many different ways...usually with as much chocolate as I can. As luck would have it, I didn't have any chocolate cake mixes or chocolate pudding. So, I thought I would take my recipe and tweak it a little. I named the finished product Marilyn because it is a blond bombshell. The cake is so moist; almost unbelievably so; plus it has chocolate chips for a little extra flavor. I served it with vanilla bean ice cream and hot fudge. You need to try this. No, really. It will knock your socks off.

It only takes a few simple ingredients. One yellow cake mix, one small box of vanilla pudding, sour cream, sugar, eggs, cooking oil, water and semi-sweet chocolate chips.

I only had a large box of pudding so I measured 3.9 ounces, which is the amount of a small box.

Mix all of your dry ingredients and mix with a wire whisk. Set aside.

Next, mix your wet ingredients thoroughly. Then, add the dry ingredients until well blended. Finally, add semi-sweet chocolate chips.

Pour into your greased and floured bunt pan. Oh my word, I just thought of My Big Fat Greek Wedding when I said bunt. If you want to know what I'm talking about, click here.
