- 1 box yellow cake mix, along with the ingredients listed on the package
- 2 (3.4 oz) boxes instant vanilla pudding
- 4 cups milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 12 oz bag chocolate chips
- 1 1/2 cups heavy cream
PREPARATION:
- Prepare the yellow cake in a 9×13-inch baking pan as per the instructions on the package. Allow the cake to cool completely.
- Once the cake has cooled, use the end of a wooden spoon to poke holes all over the cake.
- While the cake is cooling, whisk together the instant pudding, milk, and vanilla extract in a large bowl. Pour the pudding evenly over the cake before it thickens. Place the cake in the refrigerator to chill for one hour.
- After the cake has chilled, prepare the chocolate ganache:
- Place the chocolate chips in a heatproof bowl.
- Heat the cream until it begins to simmer on the stovetop over low heat or in the microwave.
- Pour the hot cream over the chocolate chips and let it sit for 5 minutes to allow the chocolate to soften. Then, stir until smooth and let it cool for 10 minutes.
- Pour the chocolate ganache over the cake and smooth it out with a spatula.
- Chill the cake in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or overnight, before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
