My mom has been making this cake for 30 years. Dotted with chips and topped with a chocolate glaze, it is absolutely divine, I once got up at 5 a.m. to bake a cake before work so the ladies in my office could enjoy it warm from the oven. They loved it! —Michelle Werts Brookville, Ohio

Very tasty. Used mini choco chips, my only complaint is the crust began to burn/overcook after 50 min. The cake was moist and delish inside. I think maybe it was the mini chips causing the crust to over-brown. Might try again at 325.

The recipe yields quite a big bundt cake. I found it too heavy & abit dry. It's the first time I had so much of it leftover. I threw away 3/4s of the cake.

Very yummy cake, sweet with a nice texture. I also skipped the glaze, it didn't seem to need it. I used mini chocolate chips because I had them on hand. I tried another posters suggestion and dusted the chips with confectioners sugar - it worked great; the chips were evenly distributed through the cake. Good tip.

This is just like the recipe I had from my Grandmother. I toss the mini- chocolate ships in powdered sugar prior to adding to cake so they would not sink to the bottom. Also, I dusted to top of the cooled cake with powdered sugar instead of the frosting. Always the first plate empty at any gathering.

I made this recipe for my daughter's first birthday and it was PERFECT! Moist, the chocolate chips didn't sink (thank you, sour cream!), and delicious. And, it's pretty easy to make. One change I made is I use cake flour for an even better crumb. I am already planning on making it again. Thank you! :-)

This is a good, simple, rich cake recipe. The glaze, however, seems unnecessary. Not only is the amount rather large for a single bundt cake (it makes more than shown in the photo), but it overwhelms the tasty purity of the pound cake. It's not bad, mind you, but if I were to make this again I would either reduce the frosting by half or eliminate it entirely.I made this for a group of high school students, and they all liked it. It makes a lot, so we have lots left over for our family.

Very yummy! All the kids in our youth group LOVED it! I didn't have enough ingredients to make the whole bundt pan, so I cut it in half and used a loaf pan instead. Worked great!

My husband and I couldn't stop eating this, even without the frosting! I used a mix of semi, milk, and white chips, very yummy.

The cake looked as beautiful as the picture but, I found this cake to be too sweet with chips and glaze. There seemed to be too many chocolate chips and some stayed in a bunch, which made the slice fall apart when cutting. Will try cake again using less chips.
