Equipment

  • 1 Baking Sheet (With parchment)
  • 1 Mixer (Hand or stand)
  • 1 Piping bag (For assembly)

Ingredients

  • 1 box Yellow cake mix - 15.25 oz
  • 2 large Eggs - Room temp
  • ⅓ cup Vegetable oil - Canola works too
  • 1 box Instant vanilla pudding - 3.4 oz
  • 1 cup Whole milk - Cold
  • ½ cup Heavy cream - Whipped
  • ½ cup Chocolate chips - Semi-sweet
  • ⅓ cup Heavy cream - For ganache
  • 2 tablespoon Chocolate shavings - Garnish

Instructions 

  • Mix cake mix, eggs, and oil to form a dough; roll into balls and bake at 350°F for 8-10 mins.
  • Whisk pudding mix with milk until thick, then fold in whipped cream for the filling.
  • Pour hot cream over chocolate chips and whisk until a smooth ganache forms.
  • Pipe filling onto the flat side of one cookie and top with a second cookie.
  • Spoon ganache over the top cookie and sprinkle with chocolate shavings.
  • Refrigerate for 20 minutes to set the filling and chocolate before serving.

Notes

Ensure cookies are fully cooled before filling to prevent melting. Use a vegetable peeler on a chocolate bar to create professional-looking shavings.
