Preheat over to 350F. Grease the bundt pan.
In a large bowl, mix together cake and pudding mixes, sour cream, oil, eggs (add one at a time), and water. The batter will be very thick. Stir in the chocolate chips and pour into greased bundt pan.

1 pkg. (8 oz.) PHILADELPHIA Cream Cheese, softened

Pear Cranberry Cake
For Cake
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 Tbsp baking powder
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp ground allspice*
1/2 tsp grated nutmeg (fresh grated makes a difference, but either will work)
1-3/4 cups sugar
1-1/4 cups vegetable oil
4 large eggs (I used extra large and it was terrific)
1 Tbsp pure Vanilla extract
3 Bosc pears (1-1/2 lbs., cut into 3/4 inch pieces (unpeeled)
1 cup cranberries (thawed if frozen)
For the Glaze
1 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
1 Tbsp light corn syrup
1 tsp pure Vanilla extract
3 (3-inch long) cinnamon sticks
Equipment
a 10x4" angel food cake pan or a 15-cup Bundt pan
Preheat oven to 350 degrees with rack in middle. Spray pan with butter-flavored cooking spray.
Whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and spices (see note below if you don't have allspice).
Beat together sugar, oil, eggs, and vanilla with an electric mixer until well combined.
At LOW speed, mix in pears and cranberries, then mix in flower mixture until well incorporated.
Spoon batter in to pan.
Bake until a wooden pick inserted into center comes out clean, about 1-1/4 hours (I set my timer for 75 minutes and it was about perfect).
Cool in pan 20 minutes, then turn out onto a wire rack and cool completely (I did this the night before serving).
Make the glaze:
Bring cream, brown sugar, corn syrup, vanilla, cinnamon sticks and a pinch of salt to boil in a small, heavy saucepan, stirring occasionally, then simmer until slightly thickened, about 15 minutes.
Cool glaze (I poured it into a Pyrex 2-cup measure) about 5 minutes, discard cinnamon sticks, then pour glaze over cake, allowing some to drip down sides. Allow to set about 2 hours before serving.
*If you need a substitute for allspice, just increase the cinnamon and nutmeg amounts by 1/4 tsp, add 1/8 tsp. ground cloves and 1/8 tsp of black pepper to your dry ingredients. -

German Chocolate Balls - - really easy and DELICIOUS!
Bake any good brand German Chocolate cake mix according to the box directions. After the cake has cooled, dump into a large bowl and crumble to pieces. Dump in one can of the prepared coconut pecan frosting mix, mash into the cake until well moistened and then form into 1/2 inch balls. Place the balls on waxed paper to prepare for dipping.
In a microwave safe bowl, melt according to the package directions one pound of chocolate Almond Bark (candy coating that can usually be found on the cake aisle of your supermarket) and dip the pre-formed balls, allowing them to cool on the waxed paper. If you're feeling expecially crafty, you can also drizzle some of the white Almond Bark over the tops for decoration.
ENJOY! -

No Bake "Reese's" Peanut Butter Bars
Ingredients
1 1/2 C graham cracker crumbs
1 lb (3 1/2 C) powdered sugar
1 1/2 C creamy peanut butter
1 C (2 sticks) real butter, melted
1 12oz bag chocolate chips (milk, semi-sweet, or dark, you pick!)
2 tsp shortening
In a large mixing bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, powdered sugar and peanut butter and butter and beat until combined. Press into a parchment (or waxed paper or foil) lined 9x13 pan.
Place chocolate chips and shortening* in a microwave safe bowl and heat in 30 second intervals, stirring after each one, until melted and smooth. Pour chocolate over peanut butter mixture and spread out evenly. Place pan in the fridge just until chocolate is set and then cut into bars. Tip: If the bars chill until the chocolate is too hard to easily cut, use a sharp knife and score the cuts first, then gently cut through. Can be stored in the fridge or at room temp. They will stay firmer if stored in the fridge.
*Instead of adding shortening to the chocolate topping just add a scoop of peanut butter. This will prevent the top from getting solid. These really taste like peanut butter cups :) -
