Red Wine Chocolate Cake


1 box Devils Food Cake (plus ingredients needed to prepare)
1 bottle dry red wine, such as Cabernet Sauvignon 
2 T unsalted butter softened
1 c semisweet mini chocolate chips
1 c powdered sugar
Fresh berries, cherries, whipped cream (optional)

Preheat oven to 350 F. Prepare the box cake mix as directed, but substitute wine for the water. Pour into a prepared bundt pan and bake for 40-45 mins, until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Cool cake completely. Then invert onto a large plate. 

In a small bowl, microwave butter and chocolate chips for 30 seconds. Stir, then microwave for 15-30 secs more until fully melted. Add 1/2 cup wine and stir. Add powdered sugar and stir until smooth. Let rest 10 mins before drizzling over cake. Serve with fresh berries or cherries and whipped cream. Oh, and drink up the rest of the wine!
