Equipment

Ingredients

For the Cake

  • 1 box chocolate cake mix; 15.25 ounce size box
  • 1 box fudge brownie mix; 18.3 ounce size box
  • 4 eggs
  • 1 ¼ cup water
  • 1 cup oil

For the Homemade Chocolate Glaze

  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 12 ounces semi-sweet chocolate morsels

Instructions

For the Cake

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Add the ingredients for the cake in a large bowl and using either a stand mixer or hand mixer, and mix until everything is combined.
  • Pour batter into prepared bundt pan that's been sprayed with non-stick baking spray and bake for 50-55 minutes.
  • When done baking, remove cake and allow to cool in pan for up to five minutes.
  • Run a knife along the edges of the cake pan to help release the cake and then carefully turn the cake out onto a cooling rack. 
  • Cool for 30 minutes more.

For the Homemade Chocolate Glaze

  • Place heavy whipping cream in a microwave safe bowl and heat on high for two minutes or just until the heavy cream begins to boil.
  • Remove the bowl from the microwave and carefully add the chocolate morsels.
  • The mixture may bubble up, this is okay!
  • Let the mixture sit for 5 minutes and then begin to whisk until shiny and smooth, about 1 minute.
  • At first it may look like the glaze is not going to get smooth. But keep stirring and it will come together. 
  • Pour over cooled cake and allow the glaze to drizzle down the sides of the cake.
  • You can serve it right away or allow the glaze to cool.
