COPYCAT NOTHING BUNDT RED VELVET CAKE

-
Red velvet cake with chocolate chips and a cream cheese frosting that tastes like the popular Nothing Bundt cake.

Summer is here! Well, not the season but the kids are out from school. Yay for them! I’m so happy they can relax and take some time off. I remember being SO excited for Summer when I was a child. It’s so exciting. But now I’m a parent and it’s a bit different. I love my kids so much and truly enjoy spending time with them, but Summer is HARD for blogging mommies. And also for work from home daddies.

Copycat Nothing Bundt Red Velvet Cake


Servings 
14 -16 cake slices

Ingredients
For the cake
  • 1 box Red Velvet Cake Mix*
  • 3/4 cup sour cream at room temperature
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 3 eggs at room temperature
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
For the frosting
  • 8 ounces cream cheese softened
  • 1/4 cup butter softened
  • 2 1/2 cups powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
*Note - If you can't find a red velvet mix use a white cake mix, plus 3 tablespoons cocoa powder and 2 tablespoons red food coloring


Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease a Bundt pan. (I use Crisco and lots of it.) Set aside.
  2. Place all ingredients in a large bowl. Mix on low with an electric mixer until ingredients are combined, then turn up the speed to medium and beat for two minutes. Pour into prepared pan and bake for 45-50 minutes or until a tooth pick inserted in the middle comes out clean. Let cool.
  3. For the frosting, add the butter and cream cheese to a large bowl. Beat with an electric mixer on medium for 2 minutes. Turn the mixer down to low and gradually add the powdered sugar and vanilla. Once combined, turn the mixer up to medium and beat for another two minutes. Pour frosting into a pastry bag fitted with a standard plastic coupler (I used Ateco brand). Pipe onto cooled cake. Serve immediately. Store covered in refrigerator for up to 5 days.

NUTELLA MUG CAKE

This single serving Nutella mug cake is ridiculously easy to make with just 3 ingredients. It's rich, dense, chocolatey and everything a flourless cake should be. You may recall earlier last year I posted my 2 Ingredient Flourless Nutella Mug Cake, a recipe I created for my 5-Minute Mug Cakes* cookbook. It remains one of my favorite recipes to date, but a lot of readers were avoiding it because the recipe requires the cake to rest for several hours (even though it only takes 5 minutes to make). Nutella Mug Cake Ingredients:  1/4 cup Nutella  1 large egg  1/2 tbsp dutch processed cocoa powder Directions: Combine all ingredients in an oversized microwave-safe mug. Mix vigorously with a small whisk until batter is smooth and the egg has been completely mixed in. Cook in the microwave for about 1 minute 10 seconds. The cake should be set but may be slightly wet on top. Let cake cool for 15 minutes before serving. The cake will condense down during this cooling proces
