Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 12 inch bundt pan by spraying with cooking spray or smearing with solid shortening.

Combine cake mix, pudding mix, milk, sour cream and eggs in mixer bowl. Beat on low speed until blended and add pecans and chocolate morsels.  Stir into batter and pour into prepared pan.

Bake for 55 to 65 minutes or until wooden pick inserted in cake comes out clean. Cool in pan for 15 minutes and remove from pan onto cake plate.

Now we will make the icing!  Over low heat, melt 2 oz. of baking chocolate and butter.  Stir occasionally to prevent scorching.

Add confectioners sugar, milk, and vanilla until thin enough to drizzle over  cake.

If you’d rather not add this extra fuss to the recipe, you can also just buy a can of pre-made dark chocolate icing and heat that in the microwave for about 45 seconds until it is pourable.
