After spending a week in Maine and enjoying some awesome whoopie pies...... I decided that this recipe is a must! It is easy--- it looks luscious--- and it is delicious!
Ingredients:
1 (15.25 oz.) box chocolate fudge cake mix
1 (3.9 oz.) box instant chocolate fudge pudding mix
¾ c. water
¾ c. vegetable or canola oil
4 large eggs
1 c. sour cream (or Greek yogurt)
1 tsp. vanilla
Marshmallow Creme Filling:
10 Tbl. unsalted butter, room temperature (I just used regular)
1 (7 oz.) carton marshmallow creme
pinch of salt
1½ tsp. vanilla
2 c. powdered sugar
Chocolate Ganache:
½ c. chocolate chips
3 Tbl. whipping cream
Instructions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. For the Cake: Grease and flour a 12 cup bundt pan; set aside. In a large bowl,
combine the dry cake mix, dry pudding mix, water, oil, eggs, sour cream and vanilla. Using a hand mixer, mix until all
ingredients are completely incorporated and mixture is smooth. Pour batter into the prepared bundt pan and spread
out evenly. It is a very thick batter. Bake for 45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Remove from oven and cool in pan for 10 minutes, then invert to a wire rack and cool completely. Once cake is cool,
slice in half horizontally.
2. For the Marshmallow Creme Filling: In a large bowl, using a hand mixer, mix butter until smooth. Add the
marshmallow creme, salt and vanilla and mix until well combined. Add one cup of powdered sugar and mix until
combined. Add remaining one cup of powdered sugar and mix until smooth and creamy. Spread filling over the
bottom half of the cake and place top half of cake over the creme filling.
3. For the Chocolate Ganache: Place chocolate chips in a small bowl; set aside. Microwave whipping cream in a small,
microwavesafe, dish until it starts to bubble. Pour hot cream over chocolate chips and allow to sit for 5 minutes. Stir
together until smooth and creamy. If chocolate chips aren't completely melted. Place in the microwave and heat,
stirring every 10 seconds until mixture is smooth and chocolate is melted. Allow to cool for 10 minutes or until slightly
thickened and pour over cake. Store cake in the refrigerator. Bring to room temperature before serving.
