Lucy's Chocolate Cake...The Recipe

I know you've been missing my Bundt Cake pictures!

We had such a fun night! We went over to some friend's house for a little pre-Labor Day cookout. The kids all entertained each other and we actually got to sit around the table and have a real adult conversation. How often does that happen??? By request, I took Lucy's Chocolate Cake. And by request, here is the recipe:

1 package Devil's Food Cake

1 large box instant chocolate pudding
1 cup sour cream

1/2 cup oil
1/2 cup warm water

4 eggs
12 oz. package semi sweet chocolate chips

Mix well and bake at 350 for one hour in a bundt pan (MY FAVORITE!!) Let it sit for about 15 minutes and pour a little milk all over the top of the cake. I thought this sounded crazy and I actually made Lucy come over and pour the milk on the first time I baked this cake. Let cool a little and flip and pour milk on the top of the cake. Sprinkle with powdered sugar...YUM!!!

This cake is rich but I LOVE it! I'm usually not a fan of cold cake but I actually think this one tastes even better cold.

The Lovely Assistant has been lovely this week so for the first time in a long time I'm almost caught up with orders. It's a good thing because next week is going to be CRAZY! Birthdays, LOTS of school stuff and of course, The Open House. I'm super excited - I've lost count of how many people have said they are coming so I think it will be so much fun.

I'm calling it an early night but here are a few pictures for you!

A Bride requested these chapsticks for her Bridal Party. She wanted black, ivory and a "hint" of Tiffany Blue. I heart a "hint" of Tiffany Blue! These made me so happy!!!
