Very Chocolatey Cake

We had a birthday at work this week and I wanted to bring my very famous chocolate cake. This cake is so good that a friend of mine will do work around the house for me if I bake him this chocolate cake. But I was ready to amp it up a bit. The only way to improve a chocolate cake is to add more chocolate, right? This recipe is so easy, moist and chocolatey. Try it you'll love it.

1 pkg of Devil's food cake mix
1 (5.9 oz) pkg of instant chocolate pudding mix
1 c. sour cream
1 c. vegetable oil
4 eggs, beaten
1/2 c. of milk (This is the 1st amp up. This was water.)
1 tsp. of vanilla
2 c. of mini semisweet chocolate chips (This is the 2nd amp up.)

In a large bowl, mix together the cake, pudding, sour cream, oil, eggs, milk and vanilla. Stir in the chocolate chips. Pour into either a bundt pan or two 9 inch round cake pans. Bake on 350 for 45 minutes. Be careful not to over bake. Cool cake in the pan for at least an hour.

I'm still working on the frosting. The Hubbs says it needs a really good butter cream icing but not my peanut butter cream icing because the peanut butter takes away from the chocolate flavor. Is that possible? If you try it let me know what you think.
