This isn't from scratch, but is still phenominal. If you really love chocolate, you've got to try this.

You will need 1 ten-inch pan
3 oz. warm butter
2 boxed cake mixes
1/2 cup mayonaise
3/4 cup semi-sweet milk chocolate chips
3/4 cup milk-chocolate chips
1 cup heavy cream
1/4 tsp. salt
2/3 cup cooking oil (I use safflower since sunflower oil isn't available around here.
water according to package directions
6 large eggs.

Preheat oven to 350
butter the pan and flour it.
mix the cake mixes, water, eggs mayonaise, and oil together until smooth. Fill the cake pan with the cake batter. Place in the hot oven and cook for 1 hour. Test with butter knife, if it comes out clean, then the cake is cooked through. If it doesn't, cook for another ten minutes and retest.

While the cake is baking, combine the chocolate chips, cream, and salt in the top of a double boiler and heat while stiring with a whisk until your ganache is smooth and creamy. Remove top section and place in the fridge to cool. Serve over either hot or cold cake. Add a scoop of good vanilla ice cream if you prefer.

This is an amazing flavor. Enjoy.

It is NOT from Scratch...I do have a busy work schedule. This one is moist,
delicious, travels well, stays moist:

1 Devil's Chocolate Cake Mix (Betty Crocker with Hershey Bar on Box)

1 can Light Evaporated Milk

Mix these two ingredients WELL.

Grease a 9 x 13 glass baking pan

Spread the mix (Cake Mix and Evaporated Low Fat Milk) in the baking pan

Top the cake with the Light Cherry Pie Filling . Drop with a spoon. DO NOT
MIX.

Place in a 350 degree oven for 50 minutes

Cool completely on a rack

Frost. I usually make this Cake when I am in a hurry...and I frost with
ready made chocolate frosting. Is a hit everytime and quick and easy to make.

This sounds yummy. I wonder if I could substitue raspberry pie filling for the cherry. Both are similar in flavor and go great with chocolate.

I would think any pie filling would work with any flavor cake mix. How about peach pie filling with butter pecan cake mix?
 
I'm not feeling that one, lyndalou...

may I suggest

peach/apple pie filling with spice cake mix
blueberry pie filling with lemon cake mix
 
goodweed, you're either still only about 25 years old and unconcerned about such things, or have forgotten the following, which should follow the part about adding a scoop of ice cream: run 20 miles and then eat only outside of an emergency ward while a cardiac specialist is on duty.
