Yellow Chocolate Chip Cake

The Occasion: Fourth of July gathering at Aunt Pam's house.

The Recipe: From this blog, except I used yellow cake mix instead of chocolate. Icing recipe is from here.

How it Went: This cake was unbelievably easy and delicious, the kind of dessert that gets you compliments you feel guilty receiving because you hardly did anything.


What You Need:
1 box yellow cake mix
1/2 C vegetable oil
1/2 C water
8 oz sour cream
3 eggs
6 oz chocolate chips
1 C powdered sugar
1 T milk
1/2 tsp vanilla

Your Turn:
In a large mixing bowl, combine
  • 1 box yellow cake mix
  • 1/2 C vegetable oil
  • 1/2 C water
  • 8 oz sour cream
  • 3 eggs
Add 6 oz chocolate chips. I used a combination of milk chocolate and semi-sweet chocolate chips.


Pour batter into a greased and floured bundt pan.

Bake at 350 for 1 hour. Check for done-ness with toothpick inserted into center of cake.

Let cool completely, if possible, before turning out of pan onto serving platter.

Whisk together
  • 1 C powdered sugar
  • 1 T milk
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla
Drizzle onto cake with a spoon.


Slice and eat!
