can you use vegetable oil instead of cannola and get the same results?

To make it EVEN better, add 1 tablespoon of instant coffee granules. It is awesome. Brings out a deeper chocolate flavor! YUM!

I have made this recipe several times now and it is always a hit. It is moist and I have even substituted peanut butter chips for the chocolate chips. It is a hit with my family.

I did dark chocolate chips and cake mix, and it was a dark chocolate dream!

Made this for Super Bowl Sunday. Everyone loved it. I will make it again and maybe try peanut butter chips along with the chocolate ones.

We liked this cake but feel it needs a little more peanut butter taste. Will make again adding more PB and PB chips. Dust with powdered sugar and serve!

Excellent! My husband has Requested it as his birthday cake this year. He said he could just take a fork to the pan and eat it for dinner tonight.
