By rdhch

Ingredients

• 1 box devil’s food cake mix
• 1 small pkg Jello instant chocolate pudding mix
• 1 C sour cream
• 1 C canola oil
• 4 eggs, beaten
• 1/2 C milk
• 1 tsp vanilla
• 2 C semisweet chocolate chips

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. In a large bow mix together all the ingredients except for the chocolate chips. Stir in the chocolate chips. Pour batter into a buttered and floured cake pan. I used two 9-inch pie pans.

For cooking time, use the cooking times on the back of the cake box as a guide and add about 10 minutes to that. Check for doneness using a tooth pick.)

Buttercream Frosting

1 C butter
4 C powdered sugar
1/4 tsp salt
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/3 C heavy whipping cream

In a mixer cream butter until fluffy. Add sugar and continue creaming until well blended. Add salt, vanilla, and whipping cream. Blend on low speed until moistened. and then beat at high speed until frosting is fluffy.
