Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 box Chocolate cake mix
- 15 ounces Canned pumpkin puree
- 0.5 cup Vegetable oil
- 3 large Eggs
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 cup Chocolate chips (optional)
- 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking pan or two 9-inch round cake pans.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the chocolate cake mix, canned pumpkin puree, vegetable oil, eggs, and ground cinnamon. Stir until the mixture is smooth and well blended.
If using, fold in the chocolate chips gently to distribute them evenly through the batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan(s), spreading it evenly.
Place the pan(s) in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
Once baked, remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then transfer the cake to a wire rack to cool completely.
If desired, dust the cake with powdered sugar before serving or top with whipped cream for extra indulgence. Slice and enjoy!
