Chocolate Cakes
- 1 box chocolate cake mix {13.25 ounces}
- 3 large eggs
- ½ cup vegetable oil
- 1 cup water
- ¼ cup brewed coffee
- ¼ cup sour cream
Chocolate Ganache
- 1 cup milk chocolate chips
- ¼ cup heavy cream
Chocolate Cakes
Combine chocolate cake mix, eggs, vegetable oil, water, brewed coffee and sour cream in a large bowl. Use a hand held mixer {or mix by hand} to mix the ingredients together until you have a nice and smooth batter.
Spray each of the mini bundt pans liberally with nonstick cooking spray. Fill the pans ⅔ full. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the cakes comes out with only a few crumbs.
Allow the cakes to cool in the pans for 10 minutes. Run a knife around the edge of each cake to loosen them {if needed}, then turn them out onto a cooling rack to cool completely.
Chocolate Ganache
Combine the milk chocolate chips and heavy cream in a small bowl. Microwave for 30 seconds. Whisk the ingredients until smooth. If it is still chunky, add 15 seconds and whisk again. To get the ganache a smooth spoonable consistency, add enough heavy cream to get it there.
- If you are using a mini bundt pan with 12 bundt cakes {instead of 6} they will only need to bake for 9-11 minutes.
- TOPPING IDEAS: Mini chocolate chips, chopped nuts, sprinkles, candy.
- To keep your pan nonstick, do not use anything abrasive on the surface when cleaning them.
