Dad is great, he gives us chocolate cake

This was really good cake......really good. It was like a cake mix recipe where you add extra things but it's not a cake mix. It was dense and moist and chocolatey and yummy. It didn't even need icing. I found this recipe on The Hungry Mouse website. She has a lot of recipes that I want to try. I had to make one change to the recipe. It called for cream de cocoa .......... and we just don't have much alcohol around here, chocolate or otherwise. I just put milk in instead and added some extra vanilla.

3 eggs
1/3 c. butter, softened
16 oz. sour cream
1/2 c. milk
2 tsp. vanilla
2 c. flour
1 3/4 c. sugar
1/2 tsp. baking powder
1 3/4 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. salt
2/3 c. cocoa
1 small pkg. chocolate instant pudding powder
1 c. mini chocolate chips
Beat the butter and eggs together until well mixed. Add sour cream, milk and vanilla. Mix all of the dry ingredients together and add to the butter/sour cream mixture. Fold in chocolate chips. Pour into greased and floured bundt pan. Bake at 350 degrees for anywhere from 40-60 minutes. It will probably just depend on your oven. Mine took about 45 minutes..... you don't want to over cook! Let cool in pan for 10 minutes. Turn out and let cool. Either dust with powdered sugar and eat right a piece right now or you can frost it:
1 c. chocolate chips
1 c. heavy cream
1 Tbsp. light corn syrup
1 Tbsp. milk
3 Tbsp. butter
Heat the chocolate chips, cream, corn syrup and milk until the chocolate is melted. Remove from heat, stir in the butter. Put the mixture in the fridge until cool. Beat with an electric mixer until it becomes fluffy.
