Ingredients
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine oil, cake mix, egg, water, regular chocolate pudding, and chocolate chips, preferably using an electric mixer.
- Pour the batter into a greased 13 x 9-inch metal or glass container.
- Bake at 350°F for 30 to 35 minutes.
- Test for doneness with a toothpick.
Tips & Substitutions
For a richer flavor, consider substituting melted butter for oil. You can also use a gluten-free cake mix if needed. Adding a dash of espresso powder enhances the chocolate flavor without being noticeable. Make sure to mix the batter just until combined to keep the cake light and fluffy. If you want a different texture, try adding nuts or using mini chocolate chips.
Serving Suggestions
Serve this rich Chocolate Chocolate Chocolate Cake with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream to balance the intense chocolate flavor. It pairs beautifully with a cup of coffee or a glass of milk. For a fun presentation, dust with powdered sugar or add chocolate shavings on top. This makes a fantastic dessert for gatherings alongside American recipes like Green Chile Casserole Grits.
Storage & Reheating
Store any leftover cake in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days. If you want to keep it longer, refrigerate it for up to a week. To reheat, simply warm individual slices in the microwave for about 10-15 seconds or until just warmed through. This keeps the cake moist and delicious.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use a different type of pudding mix?

How do I know when the cake is done baking?
To check for doneness, insert a toothpick into the center of the cake. If it comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs, the cake is done. If the toothpick has wet batter on it, give it a few more minutes in the oven.
