This is a recipe from Duncan Hines.  I just made it today for a Thanksgiving meal at my son’s daycare tomorrow.  Very quick to prepare.

DEVIL’S FOOD POUND CAKE

  • 1 package Duncan Hines Devil’s Food Cake Mix
  • 1 pkg. (4-serving size) chocolate instant pudding mix
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 1/4 cups water
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil

GLAZE

  • 1/2 cup Duncan Hines Creamy Homestyle Frosting (favorite flavor)

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Grease and flour 10-inch bundt pan or tube pan. 

Combine cake mix, pudding mix, eggs, water, and oil in large bowl. 

Beat at medium speed with electric mixer for two minutes.  Pour into pan.

Bake at 350 for 50 - 60 minutes or until tootpick inserted in center comes out clean.  Cool in pan 25 minutes.  Invert onto heat resistant serving plate.  Cool completely.

For glaze, heat frosting in small saucepan over medium heat, stirring constantly, until thin, or microwave on high 10 - 15 seconds. Do not overheat.  Drizzle over cake.
