Decadent chocolate cake with fudgy tunnel and rich chocolate glaze.
Ingredients:
  • 1.5 cups milk
  • 1 (3.5 ounce) package non-instant chocolate pudding mix
  • 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
  • 1.3333300352097 cups white sugar
  • 0.75 cup butter, softened
  • 0.5 cup shortening
  • 4 eggs
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 0.5 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 0.5 teaspoon baking powder
  • 0.5 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup milk
  • 2 cups chopped walnuts
  • 0.75 cup confectioners' sugar
  • 6 tablespoons milk
Instructions:
  • Prepare the filling: Heat 1 1/2 cups of milk in a medium pan, then add the pudding mix and cook according to package instructions. Fold in chocolate chips until melted. Remove from heat and set aside.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and prepare a 10-inch Bundt or tube pan by greasing and flouring it.
  • For the cake batter, in a large bowl, cream together white sugar, butter, and shortening until light and fluffy. Stir in vanilla and eggs until well combined.
  • Combine flour, 1/2 cup cocoa, baking powder, salt, and 1 cup milk in a bowl. Mix on low speed until combined. Increase to medium speed and beat for 3 minutes, then gently fold in walnuts.
  • Set aside 2 cups of the batter. Pour the rest into the prepared pan. Create a ring of the filling on top of the batter, ensuring it stays away from the edges of the pan. Finally, spread the reserved batter over the filling.
  • Bake at the set temperature until the cake springs back gently in the center, which should take about 50 to 60 minutes. Allow to cool in the pan for 1 hour, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • Prepare the glaze by mixing together confectioners' sugar and 1/4 cup cocoa in a small bowl. Add milk gradually until you reach the perfect drizzling texture. Drizzle the glaze over the cooled cake, letting it cascade down the sides beautifully.
