For my son's third birthday I made him a Batman cake. He's a tad obsessed, and while the decorations were a lot of hard work, the cake itself was easy and decadent.
This cake was mostly homemade. I took some help from the grocery store, and purchased a cheap devil's food cake box mix. So that's step one for this, step two is throw out the box and do something very different. I used the cheap cheap box, I can't remember the exact ounces but it was different than the brand name ones, and this seemed to work fine, and should work well with other mixes as well.
To the dry ingredients I added one package of dark chocolate pudding mix
3/4 cup of yogurt
3 eggs (beaten)
2 tsp vanilla
1/4 cup of flax meal
Incorporate well by beating on medium speed for approximately 2 minutes.
Fold in 1/2 cup of chocolate chips and then pour into your molds.
Bake at 350 till a toothpick inserted in the center is clean. Around 25-30 minutes.
This cake was so fluffy and light you'll never want to use the directions on the box again!
