  • Total Time: 45 minutes
  • Preparation Time: 20 minutes
  • Cooking Time: 25 minutes
  • Servings: 1 cake

Ingredients:

  • 1 box instant vanilla pudding
  • 1 box chocolate cake mix
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 1/2 cups milk
  • 3/4 cup cream cheese
  • 8 ounces powdered sugar
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 container Cool Whip
  • 1 cup pecans, chopped
  • 3 Hershey bars, chopped

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Cake Batter: Start by disregarding the instructions on the cake mix box. Instead, combine the chocolate cake mix, instant vanilla pudding, eggs, milk, and oil in a mixing bowl. Mix everything thoroughly at medium speed for about 2 1/2 minutes until a smooth batter forms.

  2. Bake the Cakes: Grease and flour three 8-inch round cake pans. Divide the batter evenly among them and smooth the tops. Place the pans in a preheated oven at 325ยฐF (163ยฐC) and bake for 20-25 minutes. To check if they’re done, insert a toothpick into the center of each cake; it should come out clean when they’re ready.

  3. Cool the Cakes: Once baked, transfer the cake pans to wire racks to cool. Allow them to cool completely before assembling the cake.

  4. Prepare the Frosting: While the cakes cool, it’s time to whip up the delicious frosting. In a mixing bowl, cream together the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and granulated sugar until smooth and creamy. Make sure the sugar granules have completely dissolved.

  5. Add the Toppings: Once the cream cheese mixture is smooth, gently fold in the Cool Whip, chopped pecans, and chopped Hershey bars. Mix until everything is evenly distributed throughout the frosting.

  6. Frost the Cake: Now comes the fun part! Generously frost each layer of the cooled cakes with the creamy icing mixture. Don’t hold back – there’s plenty of frosting to go around!

  7. Chill and Serve: After frosting the cake, cover it and store it in the refrigerator until you’re ready to serve. The chilled cake is an absolute delight to enjoy, especially on a warm day or after a hearty meal.
