Read Review (1)

"Even this healthier version of Denise's cake might win First Prize at the county fair! We used natural cake mix and light sour cream with great results." — MakeItHealthy

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 12-cup tube pan.
Mix cake mix, pudding mix, sour cream, oil, beaten eggs, and water in a large bowl until smooth. Stir in chocolate chips. Pour batter into prepared pan.
Bake in preheated oven until top is springy to the touch and a wooden toothpick inserted comes out clean, 50 to 55 minutes. Cool cake thoroughly in pan at least 1 1/2 hours before inverting onto plate. Dust with confectioner's sugar before serving.

The 'crumb' was off for me personally, from the original version of the cake. I used 1 cup of mini chocolate chips to keep them from sinking to the bottom of the cake. It was drier and less dense, but no one noticed the difference--the cake plate was empty! Glazed it with the "Chocolatey Satin Glaze" from AR.
