Ingredients

• 1 cup chopped walnuts
• 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
• ⅓ cup vegetable oil
• 3 eggs
• 1 cup water
• cooking spray
• 1 (16 ounce) can prepared chocolate frosting
• 1 (15.25 ounce) package spiced cake mix (such as Betty Crocker®)
• 1 tablespoon confectioners' sugar (Optional)

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Grease a microwave-safe bowl or ramekins with nonstick cooking spray.

Step 2

Combine cake mix, water, eggs, and oil in a large bowl and beat with an electric blender on low speed until moistened, about 30 seconds. Increase to medium speed and beat for 2 minutes. Stir walnuts and chocolate chips into the batter. Pour half of the batter into the prepared microwave safe bowl or ramekins.

Step 3

Spoon chocolate frosting over the batter and spread evenly over the top. Pour the rest of the batter on top.

Step 4

Microwave until a toothpick inserted in the middle of the cake comes out clean, 7 minutes for a bowl or 3 to 4 minutes for smaller ramekins. Remove from microwave and let rest, about 5 minutes. Dust with confectioners' sugar.
