Chocolate Cake Adding Extra Ingredients Need Help Please
Baking By Naty Updated 9 Nov 2019 , 4:27pm by -K8memphis

Hi everyone! I am making my regular Hershey's chocolate cake with my usual tweaks this afternoon. I want to try to add 1/2 cup semi-swwet mini chocolate chips and a small box of instant pudding mix to the batter. The batter will sure be thicker,
My questions are:
1) Should I do 1/4 c or 1/2 c mini semi-sweet chips?
2) Do i need to increase the liwuid or add an extra egg because of my additions?
Thank you.

Hi Naty :) Nice to see you around again. My suggestion i s to add 1/2 c chips and about 3 Tablespoons of strong brewed coffee to your batter. Not having made that recipe not sure if even more liquid would be needed but state with that then see if you think it really needs more.


i would think it is the pudding that made it fudgey, naty— the chips are just along for the ride —

Thank you K8Memphis! I am sorry for the late reply. I thought i had sent you a thank you before. I just notice since I'm making another chocolate cake for tomorrow and went back to the post. I think you are right about the pudding. Will omit it.
Thanks again.


oh for sure — all good — hope it turns out just the way you want it
