Delicio Recipe List

I made this cake for my hubby's birthday today. He says, "There's no such thing as too much chocolate!" Here's the recipe. It's my kind of baking... simple, easy, very little measuring and just plain good! I did use Cream Cheese Icing at his request!  Too Much Chocolate Cake 1 (18.25 ounce) package devil's food cake mix 1 (5.9 ounce) package instant chocolate pudding mix 1 cup sour cream 1 cup vegetable oil 4 eggs 1/2 cup warm water 2 cups mini semisweet chocolate chips Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a large bowl, mix together the cake and pudding mix, sour cream, oil, beaten eggs and water. Stir in the chocolate chips and pour batter into a well greased 12 cup bundt pan. Bake for 50 to 55 minutes, or until a wooden toothpick inserted comes out clean. Cool cake thoroughly in pan at least an hour and a half before inverting onto a plate If desired, dust the cake with powdered sugar.

The hubby and I made this whimsical Birthday "Cake" for a friend. Her daughter contacted me and told me that her Mom really didn't care all that much for cake, so could I make her a cake out of fruit. She sent me a picture as a reference, to let me know what she was looking for in a fruit cake. It also had to be sturdy enough to make the trip to the beach where they are vacationing! The hubby and I went through image after image trying to find just the right designs to make the cake special... after all this lady shares the same name as my Mama... Judy! So, she's pretty special to me anyway! Love you, Judy! I hope your birthday was as special as you are! Have a great time at the beach with your family!!! Have fun and Safe travels! Happy Birthday Judy !!!
