Description

This recipe creates a moist chocolate cake with a fluffy cream filling, topped with a light chocolate frosting. It’s easy to make, perfect for beginners, and a delightful treat for any occasion.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 (15.25 oz) box chocolate cake mix, plus additional ingredients called for on the box
  • 1 small box instant chocolate pudding, divided
  • 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar, divided
  • 1 (8 ounce) container Cool Whip, thawed and divided
  • 1/2 cup cold milk
  • Optional: Chocolate chips, fresh berries, sprinkles

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Line two 9-inch round cake pans with parchment paper and spray with cooking spray.
  2. Prepare the cake batter according to the package instructions, adding 1/3 cup of the dry pudding mix. Divide evenly between the pans.
  3. Bake according to the cake mix instructions. Let the cakes cool in the pans for 10 minutes before transferring them to wire racks.
  4. Once cooled, slice off the rounded tops with a serrated knife to create flat, even layers (optional).
  5. For the cream filling, beat softened cream cheese and 2 tablespoons powdered sugar until smooth. Fold in half of the Cool Whip. Spread this filling evenly between the two chocolate cake layers.
  6. For the frosting, whisk together the remaining dry pudding mix, 2 tablespoons powdered sugar, and cold milk until thick. Fold in the remaining Cool Whip. Frost the cake on top and sides. Garnish with sprinkles if desired.
  7. Chill the cake for at least 1 hour (or overnight) to allow the flavors to set before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • Ensure cakes are completely cool before adding the cream filling.
  • Chill the cake overnight for the best texture and flavor.
  • For a richer taste, drizzle with chocolate ganache before serving.
  • Variations include adding fresh raspberries, strawberries, chocolate chips, or using a chocolate ganache topping.
