1 Duncan Hines devil's food cake (I really think DH makes the best mixes. Spend the extra buck.)
1 small instant chocolate pudding mix
8 ounces cream cheese
3/4 cup water
1 cup chocolate chips
3/4 cup oil
4 eggs
Beat the cream cheese in a mixing bowl until creamy, then add cake mix, pudding mix, oil and water. Mix until well blended. Add eggs, one at a time, beating after each, then stir in the chocolate chips. Grease a bundt pan well (either spray generously with PAM or slather in Crisco then flour it). Pour batter in and bake at 350 degrees for 50-55 minutes. Let cool about 5-10 minutes before inverting onto a cooling rack. If you like to get solid pieces of chocolate in your bite of cake, store it in the fridge and pour warm frosting over it. Otherwise, store and serve at room temperature.
Frosting:
1 8 ounce brick of cream cheese, softened
1 1/2 cups white chocolate chips, melted
1 cup powdered sugar
Beat the cream cheese, then beat in the melted chocolate chips and powdered sugar. It'll be warm and a bit soupy. Using a large soup spoon, carefully pour the frosting over the cake, letting it ooze down the sides. Let the frosting set up for about 30 minutes prior to serving, and store any leftovers in the fridge.

How close does this come to the taste of Nothing Bundt Cakes chocolate cake? It looks just like it.
The nothing bundt cakes seem to all have a lot of oil in them. I actually prefer this one, but I'm biased. Of the two I posted, I think the lemon edges out the chocolate as my fave...which is really saying something, because I'm a raging chocoholic.
Heidi, I've made this a handful of times and made it again this weekend for conference. Oh.my.yum.
Thanks for sharing! My family is starting to think I actually know how to cook or something since I started stealing your recipies!
