Cooking With Moose: Episode 11, Chocolate Cake Day

National Chocolate Cake Day

Did you know that today is National Chocolate Cake Day? Yep today, January 27, is National Cake Day, and I think that is a cause to celebrate! I mean who doesn’t like chocolate cake? Once I discovered that today was national chocolate cake day I knew I had to make a cake with Moose. And since we haven’t done a Cooking with Moose Episode in quite some time, I thought this would be perfect!

As I was looking through my kitchen I saw our Bundt cake pan, that rarely gets used. So, I took to the internet to find the perfect chocolate Bundt cake recipe. I found a great and easy one here! (because you know I love simple recipes!)

Chocolate Cake

What you will need:

Devils food cake mix

Chocolate pudding mix

Sour cream

Eggs

Water

Oil

Chocolate Chips

Moose and I mixed all of this together (leaving out the chocolate chips till last) in our Kitchen Aid Stand Mixer in a matter of minutes it was ready to be poured into our pan. I had already pre heated the over to 350 degrees and greased our pan so it was ready to go. Once all poured into the Bundt cake pan we added some chocolate chips, Since I forgot to mix them in before pouring I just mixed them in the pan.

For once I didn’t make any changes to the recipe! Make sure you check out the link above for measurements and full directions.

After 45 minutes I checked the cake but it wasn’t ready, so I put it in for an additional 10 minutes, checking twice to see if it was cooked. Finally, after almost an hour it was done! And it turned out amazing! I ended up pipping cream cheese frosting onto the cake once it cooled, I just used ready made icing. Like I said it turned out delicious, I even had two slices back-to-back hahaha 😂!

He was so proud

Cooking with Moose

Moose was so proud of himself. He was such a good helper and did a great job!

This week Melvin and Moose also made some strawberry shortcake cookies that were yummy, and we continued our smoothie kick. Moose really likes making smoothies and helping in the kitchen, so we try to get him involved as much as possible!
