Directions:
Preheat oven to 350. Lightly grease 2 (9”) round cake pans. Beat cake mix, dry pudding mix, eggs, sour cream, oil, and water in large bowl with electric mixer on low speed just until moistened, scraping side of bowl frequently. Beat on medium speed for 2 min. or until well blended. Stir in 2 squares of the chocolate, chopped. Spoon into prepared pans.

Bake 30-35 minutes or until toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool in pans for 10 min. on wire rack. Loosen cakes from side of pan with spatula or knife. Invert cakes onto rack; gently remove pans. Cool completely on wire rack.

Place remaining 6 squares of chocolate and whipped topping in medium microwavable bowl. Microwave on high for 1 ½ to 2 minutes. Stir until well blended and shiny. Cool 5 minutes. Place 1 cake layer on a serving plate; spread ¼ of the chocolate mixture over the cake. Place second cake layer on top; spread remaining chocolate mixture over top and sides of cake. Garnish with almonds.
