4.   Add brown sugar, eggs, sour cream, butter, buttermilk, and vanilla extract; stir until combined.

5.   Add cake mix and stir well. Add chocolate chips if desired.

6.   Dump batter into prepared pan and spread evenly.

7.   Bake for 35–45 minutes or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean.

9.   Chocolate Glaze: In a double-boiler on the stove or in a medium bowl in the microwave, combine chocolate chips and heavy cream; melt. Stir until smooth.
