Sometimes short cuts are just what you have to do in cooking. And, this chocolate splatter bundt cake is one of those recipes that has a shortcut. Now, this doesn't in one iota way compromise the flavors or taste of this cake. It just saves some time. And, who doesn't need to have time-savers in their busy lives.
Starting with a good quality chocolate cake mix is the key to this cake. Then we're going to follow the directions, but add a few flavorful tweaks that will make this cake even chocolateeER. Really, is that a word?
What I love about the chocolate splatter bundt cake is that the 'splatter' isn't perfect. It's a homemade chocolate ganache that's drizzled helter skelter atop the cake creating a pattern and look of fun and delight. If you don't want to make the ganache, which is super easy, then look at buying some chocolate syrup or drizzle (check the ice cream section of your grocer), and use that.
If you've got little ones who are in the kitchen with you. Then you just might let him or her doing the finishing 'splatter' touches. Would be so stinkin' much fun because you can't mess up. And, the messier you are, the better the splatter is!
