Ingredients: 1 cup shortening (Crisco)
4 cups powdered sugar
1/4 tsp salt

In a mixing bowl, cream shortening until fluffy. Add sugar slowly and continue creaming until well blended. Add salt, vanilla, and whipping cream. Blend on low speed until moistened. Beat at high speed until frosting is fluffy.
Ingredients: 1 box devil’s food cake mix
1 small box Jello instant chocolate pudding mix (not the sugar or fat free kind!)
1 cup sour cream
1 cup vegetable oil
4 eggs, beaten
1/2 cup milk
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
2 cups mini semisweet chocolate chips
All you do is dump everything except the chocolate chips into a very large bowl– A 4 qt bowl is good — then mix well with a beater. The batter will be thick!
Then take your 2 cups of chocolate chips– and stir them in. I prefer the mini ones.Now, pour your batter into your cake pan of choice.
I like to bake my cakes in two, 9-inch pie pans. But you could really use this batter to make any kind of cake- sheet cake, cupcakes, bundt cake, etc. It tells you the cooking times for specific cakes on the back of the cake mix box. I use that as a guide. Usually I need to add about 10 mins to whatever they say. I usually end up baking my two, 9-inch pie pans for 45 mins. You definitely don’t want to overbake or it won’t be moist! :) Do the toothpick check, but remember, you may get some of the chocolate from the melted chips on your toothpick so don’t let that fool you. ;)
