  • 4 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup chocolate chips

Step-by-Step Guide to Preparing the Bundt Cake

  1. Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C).

  3. Mix the ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the cake mix, pudding mix, sour cream, eggs, oil, water, and vanilla extract. Stir until the batter is smooth.
  4. Add the chocolate chips: Gently fold the chocolate chips into the batter to ensure even distribution.

  6. Cool the cake: Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack. Let it cool completely before frosting or serving.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • How can I prevent my cake from sticking to the pan? Grease the pan thoroughly with baking spray and dust it with flour. If the cake sticks, place the pan in warm water for a few minutes to loosen it.
  • Can I use a different flavor of cake mix? Absolutely! Red velvet, lemon, or vanilla cake mixes work well. Adjust the pudding mix and add-ins to complement the flavor.
  • What can I use instead of sour cream? Yogurt or crème fraîche are great substitutes for sour cream, offering similar texture and richness.
  • How long should I cool the cake before frosting? Let the cake cool completely on a wire rack, about 1 hour, to ensure the frosting doesn’t melt.
  • Can I make mini bundt cakes? Yes! Divide the batter into mini bundt pans and bake for 20-25 minutes. Check for doneness with a toothpick.
