Description
Chocolate Brownie Cake is the perfect combination of rich, fudgy brownies and light, moist cake, topped with a silky chocolate ganache. This easy dessert uses boxed cake and brownie mix for a simple yet indulgent treat, ideal for parties or everyday cravings.
Ingredients
For the Cake:
- 1 box (15.25 ounces) chocolate cake mix
- 1 box (18.3 ounces) fudge brownie mix
- 4 large eggs, room temperature
- 1 ¼ cups water, room temperature
- 1 cup vegetable oil
For the Ganache:
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 1 bag (12 ounces) semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease a 10-inch bundt pan with nonstick spray.
- In a large bowl, mix cake mix, brownie mix, eggs, water, and oil until smooth.
- Pour the batter into the bundt pan and bake for 50-55 minutes. A toothpick inserted should come out with a few crumbs.
- Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
- For the ganache, heat the whipping cream in the microwave for 45 seconds or until simmering.
- Stir in the chocolate chips and let sit for 5 minutes. Whisk until smooth.
- Pour the ganache over the cooled cake and serve.
Notes
- For a sweeter ganache, use milk chocolate instead of semi-sweet.
- Add chocolate chunks, nuts, or caramel to the batter for extra indulgence.
- Store at room temperature for 2 days, refrigerate for up to 5 days, or freeze for up to a month.
