Once the cake is chilled and the pudding is set, spread the chocolate frosting evenly over the top of the cake.
Cut into squares and serve.
Tips and Notes:
Cake Mix: You can use any brand of yellow cake mix you like. You can also use a white cake mix or even a butter pecan cake mix for a slightly different flavor.
Pudding: Be sure to use instant vanilla pudding mix, not cook-and-serve.
Frosting: You can use any brand of chocolate frosting you like. For a richer flavor, try using dark chocolate frosting or even ganache.
Make Ahead: This cake is best made ahead of time, as it needs to chill for at least 2 hours for the pudding to set.
Variations: You can add a layer of whipped cream under the chocolate frosting for an even more decadent dessert. You can also sprinkle chocolate shavings or chopped nuts over the top of the frosting for added texture and flavor.
Storage: Store the cake in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
