Description

A delightful twist on a classic dessert featuring cake soaked in vanilla pudding and topped with whipped cream.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 box yellow cake mix
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1 (3.4 oz) package vanilla instant pudding

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
  2. Prepare the yellow cake mix according to package instructions, using the required milk and eggs.
  3. Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and bake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  4. Once baked, remove the cake from the oven and let it cool for about 10 minutes. Use a fork to poke holes all over the top of the warm cake.
  5. In a bowl, whisk together the milk and vanilla pudding mix until smooth. Pour the pudding mixture over the cake, ensuring it fills the holes.
  6. Cover the cake with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight for best results.
  7. Before serving, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Spread it evenly over the chilled cake.
  8. Optionally, garnish with chocolate shavings or drizzle chocolate syrup on top before slicing.

Notes

  • For best flavor, refrigerate the cake overnight.
  • Can be garnished with chocolate syrup or shavings for added decoration.
