Ingredients:

This easy hot chocolate fudge cake recipe is a delicious and easy way to make a classic holiday dessert. For this recipe, you’ll need the following ingredients:

  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • ½ cup cocoa powder (unsweetened)
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup hot chocolate mix
  • 1 cup water
  • ½ cup vegetable oil
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • ½ cup toffee bits
  • ½ cup chopped walnuts or pecans (optional)

You’ll also need a 9-inch round cake pan and a large mixing bowl.

Instructions:

To make the cake, preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease and flour the cake pan, then set aside. In the large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, cocoa, baking powder and salt. In a separate bowl, mix together the hot chocolate mix, water, oil and vanilla extract. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, and stir until just combined. Add the eggs and mix until combined. Lastly, fold in the chocolate chips, toffee bits and nuts (if using).

Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, before turning it out onto a serving plate. Serve warm with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of ice cream, if desired.
