This Bundt Cake is unbelievably amazing! The chocolate cake is extremely moist and the cream filling is completely made from scratch and tastes incredible. It is topped with a rich chocolate ganache. This cake will become a new staple.
Bundt Cakes are my favorite kind of cakes. Especially my recipe for them. It takes a boxed cake mix and completely jazzes it up. It also enhances the moist texture and keeps you coming back for more.
The cream filling is a star component to this dessert. It starts out with a roux made on the stovetop and then later added to the remaining ingredients. It is fluffy and very delicious. It goes perfectly with the chocolate fudge bundt cake.
The ganache poured over top is the perfect addition to balance out the sweetness. I like to use a blend of milk and semi-sweet chocolate chips for this recipe.
I promise I am not exaggerating when I say that this Ding Dong Bundt Cake was served to about 8 people and was gone in under 10 minutes. People went CRAZY over this Ding Dong Bundt Cake and I know they will for yours, too!
