Heaven in a Cake Pan

1 package dark chocolate cake mix
1 11 1/2 oz package dark chocolate chips
1/2 gallon Dutch Chocolate Ice Cream
1 container Cool Whip

Make cake as per directions and bake in an angel cake pan or deep bundt pan (must have a hole in the middle). Cool completely. Remove from cake pan and slice into 3 rounds. In the meantime put the ice cream in a bowl and let it get soft but not melted. Just soft enought to spread. Put the bottom layer of cake on a cake plate. Spread soft ice cream over the cake, about 1/3 of the container. Sprinkle with one third of the chocolate chips. Put on the other layer of cake, being careful to get it on straight. Spread another layer of ice cream and chocolate chips. Put on the top layer of cake. Fill the hole with the rest of the ice cream. Gently set the cake in the freezer till firm. Just before serving remove cake from freezer, cover the whole thing with the cool whip and sprinkle the top with the rest of the chocolate chips. Return to freezer until ready to serve. This is oh, so good and is definately worth all the trouble.
