Yields:16 servings
Calories: 118 per serving
Ingredients:
- box chocolate cake mix — dark chocolate or any chocolate flavor such as devils food or milk chocolate
- 6-8 ounce container plain or vanilla Greek yogurt, or 1 cup of light sour cream, not recommended to use fat free for this recipe
- 1/2 cup milk, I used 2 percent
- 1/2 cold water
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips
Directions:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees and spray a 13 x 9 baking pan with cooking spray; this time I used spray with flour mixed in but you can use regular spray as well.
- In a large mixing bowl, add the whole box of cake mix, yogurt, milk and water along with the vanilla extract.
- Mix with a rubber spatula until well blended. Make sure you get all the dry mix from the bottom of the bowl incorporated well.
- Now switch to a hand mixer. Mix on medium speed for 2-3 minutes.
- Place batter in fridge for about 15 minutes. This makes for a nice fluffy batter and lighter cake.
- Take out of fridge, toss in 1/4 cup of the chocolate chips and mix with spatula to incorporate. Pour into prepared pan and spread out evenly.
- Bake on middle rack of oven for about 20 minutes. Turn after 10 minutes for even baking. Check with a wooden skewer or toothpick. If the batter is still wet, put back in the oven for another 3-4 minutes. You don’t want to over bake this cake. You will know its ready when dry to moist pieces are on the skewer or toothpick.
- Place on a cooling rack and immediately sprinkle the remaining chips over the cake.
- Let the cake cool completely.
- Slice into 16 yummy pieces.
Enjoy the chocolate deliciousness!
