Ingredients
Cake
1 box chocolate cake mix, both 15 ounce and 18.5 ounce work
1 box (18.3 ounces) fudge brownie mix,
4 eggs, room temperature
1 1/4 cup water
1 cup vegetable oil
Ganache
1 cup heavy whipping cream
1 bag (12 ounces) semi sweet chocolate morsels
Instructions Cake
Heat oven to 350°F. Prepare a bundt pan with bakers spray or use the butter/flour method.
Combine first five ingredients in a large bowl and whisk for 2 minutes or until lumps are mostly gone.
Pour batter into prepared bundt pan and bake for 50-55 minutes.
When done baking, remove cake and allow to cool in pan for up to five minutes. Carefully turn cake out onto a cooling rack and cool for 30 minutes more.
Ganache
Place heavy whipping cream in a large microwave safe bowl and heat for about 2 minutes. You want the cream to be just boiling.
Carefully pour chocolate morsels into cream... it may rise up and bubble and this is ok.
Let sit for 5 minutes. Whisk the chocolate and cream until shiny and smooth, about 1 minute.
Pour over cooled cake and serve.
Notes
I cannot say enough about this cake. It gets 10 stars out of 5. The raves never stopped from the people who eat it. It is always proclaimed to be the best chocolate cake they have ever eaten. I use Ghiradelli brownie mix that has chocolate chips in it. I suggest buttering the pan and dusting with cocoa so there are no traces of white flour on it. If you don't love this cake and vow to make it all the times with ingredients easily stocked, you can send the rest of the cake to me.
