Ingredients

1 package yellow cake mix (regular size)
1-1/2 cups cold whole milk
1 package (3.4 ounces) instant vanilla pudding mix
2 ounces unsweetened chocolate
2 tablespoons butter
1 cup confectioners' sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 to 3 tablespoons hot water

Directions

Prepare cake mix batter according to package directions. Pour into two greased and floured 9-in. round baking pans.
Bake at 350° for 28-33 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes before removing cake from pans to wire racks to cool completely.
In a small bowl, whisk milk and pudding mix for 2 minutes. Let stand for 2 minutes or until soft-set. Cover and refrigerate.
In a microwave, melt chocolate and butter; stir until smooth. Stir in confectioners' sugar, vanilla and enough water to achieve a thick glaze; set aside.
Place one cake layer on a serving plate; spread with pudding. Top with the second cake layer. Spoon chocolate glaze over the top, allowing it to drip down sides of cake. Refrigerate until serving.
