1 box chocolate cake mix
1 (3.9 oz) box instant chocolate pudding mix
2 cups milk
½ cup melted butter
1½ cups chocolate chips
Optional: powdered sugar or whipped cream for serving
👩🍳 Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).

Do not stir. Trust the process.
Bake for 40–45 minutes, until the top is set and the center is rich and gooey.
Let cool slightly before serving.
🔥 Methods & Pro Tips
No mixing is key — dumping creates layers that bake into a fudgy center.
Use good-quality chocolate chips for extra richness.
Serve warm for gooey texture or chilled for a dense, brownie-like bite.
Pairs perfectly with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
📜 History of Dump Cakes
Dump cakes became popular in the mid-20th century when home bakers wanted maximum flavor with minimal effort. The idea was simple: dump ingredients into a pan, bake, and enjoy. Over the years, they’ve become a staple at potlucks because they’re fast, forgiving, and always delicious.
This chocolate version is the ultimate evolution of that tradition.
