Margery Wade said one of her favorite Dorothy Dean recipes is a Bundt cake that starts with a boxed cake mix. Here is her favorite recipe for Double Chocolate Cake:

Double Chocolate Cake

Spoon half the batter into greased and floured 9-inch tube pan; cover with chocolate chips. Spoon remaining batter over chips.

Bake at 375 degrees for 50 to 60 minutes or until cake tests done. Cool in pan on rack for 15 minutes. Remove from pan and complete cooling on rack. Sprinkle with powdered sugar, if desired.
