Provided by Lisa Huff

Categories     Dessert

Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/2 cup unsalted butter
15.25 ounces chocolate cake mix (1 box) ((do NOT make according to package directions))
3.9 ounces instant chocolate pudding mix (1 box) ((do NOT make according to package directions))
1 1/2 cups milk
12 ounces chocolate chips
Toppings (optional): ice cream, sweetened whipped cream or whipped topping, chocolate chips

Steps:

  • Place butter in a 13x9 inch baking dish (glass or nonstick is probably best). Place baking dish in oven and preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Check on the butter every now and then and once melted, remove pan from oven. Give the butter a quick stir so that it's well mixed and cover the bottom of the pan.
  • Sprinkle the DRY cake mix on top of melted butter in a flat even layer. Use a fork or the back of a spoon to spread the cake mix evenly over the butter.
  • Sprinkle the DRY pudding mix on top of the cake mix in a flat even layer. Use a fork or the back of a spoon to spread the pudding mix evenly over the cake mix.
  • Drizzle the milk on top of the pudding mix. Carefully tilt and swirl pan to cover as much of the pudding as possible with the milk. Using a spoon or back of a fork, gently press down on the milk so that it starts to absorb some of the cake and pudding mix and to cover any dry spots as much as possible. Sprinkle chocolate chips over top.
  • Bake the cake at 350 degrees F for about 35-40 minutes or until top looks "set" (still soft and jiggly, but not runny and not hard), being careful to not overbake. Serve with your favorite toppings.

THE VERY BEST CHOCOLATE FUDGE CAKE



The Very Best Chocolate Fudge Cake image

I have made this cake for the past several years with unfailing applause. I got the recipe from Cooks Illustrated. Do not substitute semisweet chocolate chips for the chopped semisweet chocolate in the frosting-chocolate chips contain less cocoa butter than bar chocolate and will not melt as readily. For best results, don't make the frosting until the cakes are cooled, and use the frosting as soon as it is ready. If the frosting gets too cold and stiff to spread easily, wrap the mixer bowl with a towel soaked in hot water and mix on low speed until the frosting appears creamy and smooth. Refrigerated leftover cake should sit at room temperature before serving until the frosting softens. Recipe for the wonderful Frosting is on this site "The Very Best Chocolate Fudge Icing"

Categories     < 60 Mins

Time 55m

Yield 1 2 layer cake, 10-12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

12 tablespoons butter (1 1/2 sticks, very soft)
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour (8 3/4 ounces, sifted, unbleached)
4 ounces unsweetened chocolate (coarsely chopped)
1/4 cup Dutch-processed cocoa powder (3/4 ounce)
1/2 cup water (hot)
1 3/4 cups sugar (12 1/4 ounces)
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup buttermilk
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
4 large eggs
2 large egg yolks

Steps:

  • 1. FOR THE CAKE: Adjust oven rack to middle position; heat oven to 350 degrees. Grease two 9-inch-round by 2-inch-high cake pans with softened butter; dust pans with flour and knock out excess. Combine chocolate, cocoa powder, and hot water in medium heatproof bowl; set bowl over saucepan containing 1 inch of simmering water and stir with rubber spatula until chocolate is melted, about 2 minutes. Add 1/2 cup sugar to chocolate mixture and stir until thick and glossy, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove bowl from heat and set aside to cool.
  • 2. Whisk flour, baking soda, and salt in medium bowl. Combine buttermilk and vanilla in small bowl. In bowl of standing mixer fitted with whisk attachment, whisk eggs and yolks on medium-low speed until combined, about 10 seconds. Add remaining 1 1/4 cups sugar, increase speed to high, and whisk until fluffy and lightened in color, 2 to 3 minutes. Replace whisk with paddle attachment. Add cooled chocolate mixture to egg/sugar mixture and mix on medium speed until thoroughly incorporated, 30 to 45 seconds, pausing to scrape down sides of bowl with rubber spatula as needed. Add softened butter one tablespoon at a time, mixing about 10 seconds after each addition. Add about one-third of flour mixture followed by half of buttermilk mixture, mixing until incorporated after each addition (about 15 seconds). Repeat using half of remaining flour mixture and all of remaining buttermilk mixture (batter may appear separated). Scrape down sides of bowl and add remaining flour mixture; mix at medium-low speed until batter is thoroughly combined, about 15 seconds. Remove bowl from mixer and fold batter once or twice with rubber spatula to incorporate any remaining flour. Divide batter evenly between prepared cake pans; smooth batter to edges of pan with spatula.
  • 3. Bake cakes until toothpick inserted into center comes out with a few crumbs attached, 25 to 30 minutes. Cool cakes in pans 15 minutes, then invert onto wire rack. Cool cakes to room temperature before frosting, 45 to 60 minutes.

Tips:

  • Choosing the right baking dish: For a fudgy cake, use an 8x8-inch or 9x9-inch baking dish. For a thinner, more brownie-like cake, use a 13x9-inch baking dish.
  • Using evaporated milk: Evaporated milk adds richness and creaminess to the cake. Do not substitute regular milk or water, as they will not produce the same results.
  • Measuring the chocolate chips: Use a measuring cup to measure the chocolate chips to ensure you have the correct amount. Do not scoop them directly from the bag, as this can result in too many or too few chips in the cake.
  • Mixing the batter: Do not overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in a tough, dense cake. Mix the batter only until the ingredients are combined.
  • Baking the cake: Bake the cake in a preheated oven. This will help ensure that the cake cooks evenly.
  • Cooling the cake: Allow the cake to cool completely before frosting it. This will help prevent the frosting from melting.

Conclusion:

Chocolate Fudge Dump Cake is an easy and delicious dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its rich, chocolatey flavor and fudgy texture, this cake is sure to be a hit with everyone. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy dessert, give Chocolate Fudge Dump Cake a try!
