Boston Cream Poke Cake

HOW TO MAKE

WHAT YOU NEED

yellow cake mix vanilla pudding mix milk vanilla extract semi sweet chocolate corn syrup heavy cream

Prepare and bake the cake in a 13x9 pan according to the package instructions.  Let cool completely before poking holes across the cake with the bottom of a wooden spoon.  Be sure to poke all the way to the bottom of the pan.

1

In a large bowl, whisk together pudding, milk, and vanilla, but don't let it thicken.

2

Pour the thin pudding over cake in an even layer, poking down into the holes if necessary. Refrigerate the cake for one hour.

3

Place chocolate chips and corn syrup in a bowl. Warm the cream until it simmers or heat in microwave until hot. Pour hot cream over chocolate chips and let sit for 2 minutes to melt. Stir until smooth. Let the glaze cool for 10 minutes.

4

Pour glaze over cake and smooth with a spatula. Chill cake for 4 hours or overnight before serving.

5

You also need the ingredients on the back of the cake mix box. Be sure you use instant vanilla pudding mix, not the cook and serve kind! The ganache calls for a small amount of corn syrup. It's a very small amount, but if it bothers you, use an equal amount of butter.
