Triple Chocolate Cake

Today is the annual Lobster Bake with our friends, which is always a great time.
A company comes to us and cooks our fabulous meal on site...how great is that! Half of the group brings appetizers & the other half desserts and mine was obvious.
This is my go to never fail triple chocolate cake, which should be called quadruple chocolate cake because I take it one step further & add a ganache glaze.

Triple Chocolate Cake
 
 
The recipe:
 
1 package dark chocolate cake mix
1 6 oz package instant chocolate pudding mix
1/2 cup coffee
4 eggs beaten
1 cup sour cream
1/2 cup coffee liqueur (I used Kahlua)
1/2 cup vegetable oil
2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
 
Ganache
1 cup dark chocolate chips, 1/2 cup heavy cream
 
Preheat oven 350 degrees
 
1.Combine cake through oil, beat for about 2 min until smooth, stir in chips.
2. Pour into a well greased bundt pan.
3. Bake 50-70 minutes, mine took exactly 1 hour.
 
Cool completely before turning cake out to avoid it sticking to the side of the pan.
Turn over onto serving platter. Pour ganache over cake and let drizzle over the sides.
 
Ganache:
Heat cream until edges start to bubble, add chocolate and stir until smooth & creamy. Pour over cake.
 
Make it a great Day...Eat Chocolate!
Happy Labor Day.
Enjoy!
