When guests see this dark chocolate cake drizzled in rich chocolate, they’ll think you’ve been baking all day. No need to tell them that this chocolate-orange gem started with a mix!

Ingredients

box Betty Crocker™ Super Moist™ chocolate fudge cake mix

Water, vegetable oil and eggs called for on cake mix box

tablespoon grated orange peel

container Betty Crocker™ Rich & Creamy chocolate frosting

1/3

cup whipping cream

1/2

cup semisweet chocolate chips

Steps

1

Heat oven to 350°F (325°F for dark or nonstick pans). Make, bake and cool cake as directed on box for two 8-inch or 9-inch rounds--except add orange peel to batter.
2

Fill layers and frost side and top of cake with frosting. In 1-quart saucepan, heat whipping cream over medium heat until hot (do not boil); remove from heat. Stir in chocolate chips until melted and smooth. Let stand 5 minutes.

Carefully pour chocolate mixture onto top center of cake; spread to edge, allowing some to drizzle down side. Refrigerate about 1 hour or until chocolate is set. Store covered in refrigerator.
