Ingredients
Scale
- 15.25 ounce chocolate cake mix devil's food or dark chocolate
- 3.9 ounce instant chocolate pudding mix
- ¾ cup strong brewed coffee cooled to warm, not hot
- ½ cup extra virgin olive oil
- 4 extra-large eggs
- ½ cup sour cream
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F.
- In a large bowl, mix the cake mix, pudding mix, coffee, olive oil, eggs, sour cream, and vanilla extract until just combined. Beat for about 2 minutes until the mixture is smooth and thick without overmixing.
- Generously coat a 10-12 cup Bundt pan with grease and flour, using cocoa powder for a chocolate finish.
- Pour the batter into the prepared Bundt pan and smooth the surface. Bake for 50-55 minutes, testing with a toothpick for doneness.
- Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes, then turn it out onto a wire rack to cool completely before glazing.
- For an optional glaze, melt ½ cup chocolate chips with 2 tablespoons olive oil and drizzle over the cooled cake, or dust with powdered sugar.
Notes
Using cocoa powder for dusting will enhance the chocolate flavor without leaving white residue.
Allowing the cake to cool completely before glazing will ensure the glaze sets nicely.
