How to Make Chocolate Chip Streusel Cake

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Generously grease and flour a 12-cup bundt cake pan.
  3. In a medium bowl, combine 1 cup all-purpose flour, ½ cup packed brown sugar, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and ¼ cup (½ stick) cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces. Use a pastry blender or your fingers to mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. Stir in ½ cup chocolate chips.
  5. Set aside.
  6. In a large bowl, combine one 15.25-ounce box of your favorite chocolate cake mix, 3 large eggs, 1 cup water, and ½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened.
  7. Beat on low speed with an electric mixer until just moistened, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
  8. Increase speed to medium and beat for 3 minutes, scraping the bowl frequently. Do not overmix!
  9. Pour half of the batter into the prepared bundt pan.
  10. Sprinkle evenly with the reserved streusel topping.
  11. Pour the remaining batter over the streusel topping.
  12. Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  13. Let the cake cool in the pan for 20 minutes.
  14. Invert the cake onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  15. Once completely cool, dust with powdered sugar (optional).
