Ingredients
  

  • 1 box Devil’s Food Cake Mix (13.25 oz)
  • 1 box instant chocolate pudding (3.9 oz)
  • 3 eggs
  • 2/3 cup brewed coffee
  • 8 oz sour cream
  • 1/2 cup oil
  • 2 tablespoons dark rum
  • 1 1/2 cups chocolate chips
  • 8 oz semi-sweet chocolate, chopped
  • 1 1/4 cups heavy cream

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350°F and grease a standard bundt pan.
  • Whisk together eggs, sour cream, oil, coffee, and dark rum until smooth.
  • Mix in cake mix and pudding mix until just combined. Fold in chocolate chips.
