Description

Brick Street Chocolate Cake is a rich, dense, and ultra-chocolatey bundt cake made with a chocolate fudge mix and instant pudding mix, enhanced with sour cream and chocolate chips for moistness and decadence. Topped with a smooth semi-sweet chocolate ganache glaze, this cake is perfect for celebrations and chocolate lovers.


Ingredients

Scale

For the Cake:

  • 1 box (15.25 oz) chocolate fudge cake mix
  • 1 small box (3.9 oz) instant chocolate pudding mix
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • ¾ cup vegetable oil
  • ½ cup whole milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 ½ cups semi-sweet chocolate chips

For the Ganache Glaze:

  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • ½ cup heavy cream


Instructions

  1. Preheat and prepare pan: Preheat your oven to 350°F. Grease and flour a 10-inch bundt pan or spray it with baking spray to prevent sticking.
  2. Mix the batter: In a large bowl, combine the chocolate fudge cake mix, instant chocolate pudding mix, eggs, sour cream, vegetable oil, whole milk, and vanilla extract. Beat with an electric mixer on medium speed for about 2 minutes until the batter is smooth and thick.
  3. Fold in chocolate chips: Gently fold the 1 ½ cups of semi-sweet chocolate chips into the batter ensuring they are evenly distributed.
  4. Pour and bake: Pour the prepared batter evenly into the bundt pan. Bake for 50 to 55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out mostly clean.
  5. Cool the cake: Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 to 15 minutes, then carefully invert it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  6. Prepare ganache glaze: Heat the ½ cup heavy cream in a small saucepan or microwave until just steaming. Pour the hot cream over 1 cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips in a bowl. Let it sit for 1 to 2 minutes, then stir until the mixture is smooth and glossy.
  7. Glaze the cake: Pour the ganache glaze over the cooled cake evenly. Allow it to set before slicing and serving.
