CHOCOLATE GANACHE CAKE

1 (18.25 ounce) package devil's food cake mix

1 small package instant chocolate pudding mix

3 eggs

½ cup (1 stick) butter, melted

1 cup sour cream

1¼ cups water

½ cup mini semisweet chocolate chips

GANACHE GLAZE:

1 cup semisweet chocolate chips

¼ cup heavy cream

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a 10 inch Bundt pan with non-stick spray.

.

In a large bowl, combine cake mix, pudding mix, eggs, melted butter, sour cream, and water. Beat for 4 minutes, then mix in 1 cup chocolate chips.

Pour batter into prepared pan. Bake in the preheated oven for 40 to 50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Cool 10 minutes in the pan, then turn out onto a wire rack and cool completely.

To make the glaze: Melt chocolate and cream together. Stir until smooth and drizzle over cake.

NOTE: for the Relief Society Christmas Dinner I made a Chocolate Buttercream Frosting rather than the ganache glaze. (RECIPE YIELDS 24 CUPCAKES).
