Instructions:

1. Prepare the Cake Batter:

   • Follow the instructions on the cake mix box to prepare the batter.
   • Bake in (2) 8-inch round baking pans as directed. Once done, carefully remove one layer from the pan and let it cool.

3. Assemble the Cake:

   • Spread the pudding mixture generously between the cooled cake layers, creating a luscious cream-filled masterpiece.

4. Prepare the Chocolate Glaze:

   • In a separate bowl, create the chocolate glaze by blending melted butter and cocoa until a rich, smooth consistency is achieved.

5. Sweeten the Glaze:

   • Stir in powdered sugar and vanilla to enhance the sweetness and flavor of the glaze.

6. Adjust Consistency:

   • Gradually add hot water, one tablespoon at a time, stirring until the glaze reaches your desired consistency. Aim for a luxurious, pourable texture.

7. Final Touch:

   • Once your glaze is perfect, generously spread it over the assembled cake. The glossy chocolate topping will add the finishing touch to your Boston Cream Cake.

8. Chill and Serve:
