Cake Ingredients:
1 Milk Chocolate Cake mixes

4 eggs
1/2 cup oil
1/2 cup water


Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
2. Line cupcake pans with 24 liners.
3. In the bowl of an electric mixer, combine sour cream, eggs, oil, and water.
4. Add cake mix and pudding mix. Beat until thoroughly combined.
5. Divide batter into 24 cupcake liners. I use a #24 ice cream scoop.
6. Lightly spray cupcake pan with cooking spray. This will help release the cupcakes after baking.
