Ingredients

To create this rich, moist chocolate cake with chocolate chips and pecans, you will need the following ingredients:

  • 1 package semi-sweet chocolate chips (6 oz)
  • 3/4 cup pecans, chopped for added texture and flavor
  • 1 package of chocolate cake mix (standard size)
  • 4 eggs to provide structure and moisture
  • 1 package instant chocolate pudding (4-serving size)
  • 1 container sour cream (8 oz) for extra moisture and richness

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Chocolate Chips and Pecans

  1. Prepping the Mix: In a small bowl, toss the chocolate chips and chopped pecans with one tablespoon of the dry chocolate cake mix. This step is crucial as it helps prevent the chocolate chips from sinking to the bottom of the cake during baking. Coating them in flour helps keep them suspended in the batter, creating a beautiful distribution throughout your cake.

Step 2: Mix the Batter

  1. Combine Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the remaining chocolate cake mix, eggs, instant chocolate pudding, and sour cream. Using instant pudding adds an extra layer of richness and moisture to your cake.

  2. Blend Well: Using an electric mixer, beat the mixture for about 3 minutes on a medium speed until well combined and smooth. The batter will be thick, but that thickness contributes to the cake’s deliciously dense texture.

Step 3: Fold in the Chips and Pecans

  1. Incorporate Add-Ins: Gently fold the chocolate chips and pecans into the batter using a spatula. Be careful not to overmix; you want the ingredients to be just combined to ensure a tender cake.

Step 4: Prepare the Pan

  1. Grease the Pan: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). While the oven is heating, prepare a Bundt or tube pan by greasing it with butter or non-stick spray and then lightly dusting it with flour. This will prevent the cake from sticking and ensure a clean release once baked.

Step 5: Bake

  1. Pour and Bake: Pour the prepared batter into the greased pan. Use a spatula to spread the batter evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for about 50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or with just a few crumbs attached. The baking time may vary depending on your oven, so keep an eye on it after 45 minutes.

Step 6: Cool and Serve

  1. Cool: Once baked, allow the cake to cool in the pan for about 10-15 minutes. This allows the structure to set, making it easier to invert. Then, carefully invert the cake onto a wire rack to cool completely.

  2. Serving Suggestions: You can serve the cake as is, or, for an extra indulgent treat, dust it with powdered sugar or drizzle a warm chocolate glaze over the top.
