Black Velvet

Recipe Ingredients

2 cups	186g / 6.6oz	Almonds - slivered - slightly toasted
12 oz	340g	Chocolate chips
1		Devil's food cake mix
1		Chocolate pudding - instant - 3-1/2 oz. Package
4		Eggs
1 cup	237ml	Sour cream
1/2 cup	118ml	Water
1/4 cup	59ml	Oil
1 teaspoon	5ml	Vanilla
1 teaspoon	5ml	Almond extract
1/4 teaspoon	1.3ml	Cinnamon

Recipe Instructions

Sprinkle 1/2 cup almonds on bottom of greased 10-inch tube pan. Set aside rest of almonds and chocolate chips. Place remaining ingredients in mixer bowl. Beat 4 minutes. Fold in chips and almonds, then pour into pan.

Bake in 350F oven 60 to 70 minutes. Cool 15 minutes and remove from pan.

Serve with topping of whipped cream if desired.

Note from me: A nice touch would be to puncture finished cake with long-tined fork. Dribble over cake about 1/4 cup Kahlua. Then serve with sweetened whipped cream flavored with almond or vanilla extract.
