For years, I would head to the grocery and pay for over-priced bakery cakes, pies, cupcakes, and cookies. Now, when cake and brownie mixes are on sale, I stock up the pantry. I can grab something from the pantry and whip up a tasty after dinner dessert quite quickly.
Chocolate desserts are always some of our favorites. The entire family always likes chocolate so this Chocolate Fudge Brownie Cake is perfect for feeding my crew, not a single one of them complains, ha ha!
This recipe just requires a couple of boxed mixes with some modifications and store bought frosting. I used the same heat and pour frosting idea that I used with one of our other favorite desserts, Boston Cream Poke Cake.
This brownie cake is moist and super rich… Perfect for a chocolate lover. It looks and tastes like it came from the bakery. I like that it cost quite a bit less to make right at home with just a few minutes time.
Since everyone in my family loved this one, I went through quite a bit of milk. My boys were actually fighting for the last piece. I had a few requests for me to make another for dessert again for our weekend grill out.
Grab yourself a chocolate cake mix, a fudge brownie mix, store bought chocolate frosting, some eggs, and butter to make this deliciousness. This is one of those recipes that will make for a perfect picnic or even holiday dessert.

Hi there! I tried this and it bubbled over my Bundt pan and went everywhere:(. What size pans is everyone using? Help!
Hi,
Recipe for Chocolate Fudge cake says 1 cup butter…..which is 2 sticks.
Yet next to it says about 1 1/2 sticks. Which is it ?
Very confusing
Hi Linda! You will melt 1 and a half sticks of butter. When it is melted it will be about 1 cup. I hope that helps. I hope you enjoy your weekend.
Can you make cupcakes with this recipe?
Hi Suzanne! I have never used this specific recipe for making cupcakes. If you should decide to give it a try, let us all know your results.
Thanks, Much and have a great day,

AMAZING !!!!!
Hi. Just made this yesterday with a variation. Used a 9 X 13 pan. This baked just above the edges of the pan. Perfect. Baked for 50 minutes, ’til the center was done, checking with a toothpick. The outside wall had a chewy brownie texture with the insides, a regular cake texture.
Question… Have you tried this with other cake mix flavors? Cherry, Strawberry, White or Yellow? Just curious how that would turn out.
I’m going to try Walter’s pan 9×13. I think I ate this delicious cake at a home restaurant, but they wouldn’t give out the recipe. It was beyond outstanding. Looking forward to getting feet wet. Question: Will this recipe “layer” well, with brownie on bottom and cake on top?
