I did one that my brother and family LOVED. I took a triple chcolate cake mix and added milk rather then water, melted butter rather then oil and four eggs. I mixed it up and then added chcolate chips and mixed again. The mixer sort of breaks up the chocolate chips so they melt into the cake. I also added more chocolate chips but added them by hand so they wouldn't break up.

Everyone said it was the most moist and yummy cake they have ever had.

I filled it with chocolate mouse. Take one box of chocolate pudding and mix it with whipping cream (liquid) then beat it so it becomes like a real thick whipped cream.

The final part was to ice it in chocolate ganache.

This is a cake that is going to give you one heck of a chocolate fix!

I love the Blue Ribbon Choc Cake on this site. It gets rave reviews every time I make it.
