In the Kitchen: Double Layered Chocolate on Chocolate Cake

My husband's birthday was this week and as a yummy surprise I decide to bake for him (he's a chocoholic)! I came across a cake recipe on FoodyTuby's YouTube channel that I wanted to try out and give it my own personal touch. I honestly can't remember the last time I baked anything (haha) so you can just imagine how interesting of an experience this was for me. Anyway to sum it up my Double Layered Chocolate on Chocolate Cake was a hit at the palace and I need a new mixer ASAP lol! ;-)

Cake Ingredients:

2 Boxes of Chocolate Cake Mix

2 Packages Of Chocolate Pudding Mix

1 1/2 Cups Of Sour Cream

1 1/2 Cup Of Vegetable Oil

2/3 Cup Of Water

2/3 Cup of Milk

1  Teaspoon of Vanilla Extract

1 Teaspoon of Almond Extract 

Chocolate Frosting

Mixing & Baking Instructions:

Pre-heat oven to 350, add cake mix and jello to large mixing bowl then add all other ingredients and mix well. Pour mixed batter into two greased & floured baking pans (round or square) and bake for 25-35 minutes.

Tip:

Adding milk is optional, I did so because my batter was too thick for my liking so I used the milk to loosen it up a bit. If you are ok with the thickness of your batter then skip adding the milk. Because of all the added ingredients and ovens vary it may take longer to bake, I suggest using the old school baking method of sticking a toothpick or fork into the center of the cake to check if it's done.
