• 1 (5.9-oz) pkg. chocolate fudge instant pudding mix
• 1-1/4 cups water

Preparation

Step 1

Combine first 6 ingredients in a large mixing bowl; beat at medium speed for 2 minutes. Stir in 2 cups chocolate chips. Pour batter into a greased & floured 12-cup Bundt pan. Bake at 350° for 55 to 65 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool in pan on a wire rack for 10 minutes; remove from pan & cool completely on wire rack. Combine remaining 1 cup chocolate chips & creamer in a small pot (or 1 TB almond extract & 1/2 cup plain creamer). Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly until chocolate chips melt.
