    These are over-the-top chocolatey!
    Layer 1 Cake layer:
    One box of chocolate cake mix
    1/2 cup water
    1/3 oil plus 2 tbsp
    1 cup sour cream
    4 egg whites
    1 box instant chocolate pudding mix
    Blend this together and pour it into a greased 9x13" baking dish (I lined mine with greased parchment) , bake at 350 F until toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
    When it comes out of the oven, poke some holes in the top of the cake with the handle of a wooden spoon. Allow to cool completely.
    Layer 2 Ganache Topping:
    1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
    1 can sweetened condensed milk.
    Melt the chocolate chips and then stir in the sweetened condensed milk.
    Pour this over the baked cake and put this into the fridge to allow the topping to set up a bit and is completely cool.
    (It won't set completely, it will become thicker)
    Layer 3 Frosting:
    2 1/2 cups Icing sugar
    1 cup butter, room temperature
    2 tsp vanilla extract
    pinch of salt
    Milk or cream (1-2 tbsp depending on how you like the texture)
    1/4 cup to 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
    1/2 cup mini chocolate chips
    Cream sugar and butter together until smooth.
    Blend in the cocoa powder
    Add in the vanilla extract salt and salt and then enough milk or cream to get a fluffy spreadable frosting texture. Don't skimp on the beating, it will get nice an fluffy after a few minutes.
    Stir in chocolate chips.
    Spread this over the cake/ganache layers.
    Additional chocolate chips or chocolate candies for decoration if desired.
    Idea for recipe found in a Taste of Home magazine.

    DANGEROUS. I must add this to my repertoire. I found that adding espresso powder to my chocolate cakes and chocolate buttercreams really amps up the chocolate flavor so I might include that for mine as well. Thanks for the new recipe!

      Espresso powder would be AMAZING in this.

    The throwback to Max's minecraft cake 🥹
    My, how time flies.
    I remember when videos ended with Max telling us a joke.
    And i will never, ever, ever, forget his reaction to condensed milk turning into caramel in your dulce de leche pie video 🥹❤️
    We really grew up watching you and your family and we love you soooo much ❤❤❤

    • @yoyomax12
      @yoyomax12  5 місяців тому +1

      It really does feel like yesterday sometimes when I think of him being amazed at the dulce de leche! He is now a large bearded 25 year old man (he still loves my desserts though). Thanks for the memories!

    • @yoyomax12
      @yoyomax12  5 місяців тому

      I'm not a big fan of the "pudding filled holes" poke cakes if you know what I mean. This has more of a ganache layer :)

      Butter is not as happy as cream cheese, not sure why.

    I don’t find this chocolate cake to be too deadly for me. You probably said that because it was a lot of chocolate, right?
