📝 Ingredients

(Simple ingredients, heavenly results)

  • 1 box chocolate cake mix
  • 1 (3.9 oz) box instant chocolate pudding mix
  • 2 cups milk
  • ½ cup melted butter
  • 1 cup chocolate chips (semi-sweet or milk)
  • 1 cup chopped chocolate bars or chunks
  • Optional but dangerous:
    • ½ cup chopped nuts
    • Chocolate syrup for drizzling
    • Vanilla ice cream for serving

👩‍🍳 Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Grease a 9×13 baking dish generously.
  3. Sprinkle the dry cake mix evenly over the bottom of the dish.
  4. Sprinkle the dry pudding mix directly on top of the cake mix.
  5. Slowly pour the milk evenly over everything — do not stir.
  6. Drizzle the melted butter across the top.
  7. Scatter chocolate chips and chunks everywhere like you mean it.
  8. Bake uncovered for 40–45 minutes, until the top looks set and the center is molten and gooey.
  9. Let cool for 10–15 minutes (if you can wait that long).

🔥 Methods & Pro Tips

  • Do NOT mix the layers — that’s the magic of a dump cake.
  • For extra gooey texture, slightly underbake.
  • Want bakery-level richness? Add a swirl of chocolate syrup before baking.
  • Serve warm for maximum “oh my goodness” reactions.
