Party Panache, Triple Chocolate USA Bundt Cake
While most people were making everything berry for the 4th I decided to make a good old fashioned chocolate cake
Sheer decadence
Devil’s Food cake mix, buttermilk, sour cream, chocolate pudding, butter, eggs, chocolate chips…
Where is the fainting couch šµ š
Chocolate chips are stirred into the batter before baking
The batter is so thick it you need to shovel it into the pan
Of course the ganache is just as decadent, heavy cream and chocolate
Did you know you can freeze ganache?
Just in case you don’t want to drink what’s leftover š¤£
Sprinkle some more chocolate chips over the ganache and add some peanut M & Ms for the red, white & blue touch
This cake will turn anything into a celebration!
this recipe is adapted from the Domestic Rebel
