Preparation

Step 1

This is a great cake! Add a cup of sour cream and it is very moist!

I made this last night and used the 1/2 cup oil and 1 cup sour cream. However I had to add water and applesauce and it was still dry to me. I will try again, but next time with more liquid and bake less and it was over done :(

I have made the choclate chip (pound) cake for many yrs. I use the butter yellow cake plus I use french vanilla pudding and sour cream; no nuts. This cake recipe was in the local newspaper. Also do not cool the cake in the pan for 25min. ; cool for 5-10 min. I use 1cup of sour cream and less water. Great cake.

I have made this recipe for years except mine calls for 1/2 cup oil and 8 oz of sour cream instead of 1 cup water and 1/3 cup oil. The sour cream makes it very moist and yummy. I've also added a powdered sugar glaze on top sometimes.

This is a wonderful recipe and is very easy. I used mini chips tossed in a bit of flour and they stayed perfectly throughout the cake. I also made it a second time as mini cupcakes for a ladies luncheon and were the delightful bite size decadence.

I'm making this cake again for my grandaughter's 8th birthday. She loves chocolate anything! You can change the recipe up with any flavor cake mix, pudding, or chips you want and it's still delicious! My secret to fluffy cakes is that I mix the plain cake mix for 2 to 3 minutes on low speed before adding any ingredients. This adds air to the mix sort of like sifting it. It always makes my cakes tall and fluffy.

This cake is my family's new favorite. Delish!

Really good cake even though I changed the flavors of all the ingredients!! Used Devils Food Cake, Instant White Chocolate Pudding, White Chocolate Chips, and Walnuts ..... just used what I had in the pantry. Also, I added an extra splash of water and 1/2 cup of oil (rather than 1/3 cup) - - batter seemed too dense & dry. Glad I did - - turned out perfectly. Served with real whipped cream and a drizzle of chocolate sauce.

This was very good. My girls LOVED it.

This was delicious! Not too sweet considering the amount of chips and brown sugar. Has anyone tried it with Splenda brown sugar?.
I didn't have enough pecans so added some walnuts to it and turned
out great. This will definitely please everyone.

Can this be made with Butter Recipe Golden? I don't have Yellow Cake mix in the house right now.

I think it probably can, I do that all the time with other cakes.

I've been making this recipe for years. I use chocolate pudding instead of vanilla and add a small size sour creme to the recipe. I heat a tub of vanilla icing in the microwave for 10 to 15 seconds and pour over the cake for a glaze. I then sprinkle mini chocolate chips on the top to make a pretty cake.

I made this cake for a friend minus the nuts, it turned out very good! Like a giant chocolate chip warm cookie!! And the mini chips are a must!

Mmmmmm. I made this for a baby shower and it got rave reviews. I will be trying it again with white chocolate chips.

This cake is very easy to make and it is delicious!!!
