2regular sized boxes of chocolate puddingprepared according to package instructions, divided
1jar of chocolate fudge sauce
3cupsof AE Dairy heavy cream whipped to stiff peaks with 1/2 cup of powdered sugar and 1 TBSP sour cream
3cupsof assorted chocolate chipschopped candy bars etc.
I used semi sweet chocolate chips, white chocolate chips, chopped Hershey's Symphony bar, chopped fun size 3 Musketeers
Instructions
Poke holes into freshly baked cake.
Mix half of the prepared pudding together (pudding can be loose and freshly made, it works well here) with the jar of chocolate sauce. Pour over cake.
Chill cake completely, for 2 hours at least, covered. (Chill pudding too, along with whipped cream.)
Fold whipped cream into pudding in 3 additions. Spread on top of cake, chill for 20 or more minutes.
Sprinkle candies on top. Keep chilled until you serve the cake.
Notes
If your kids sample pudding like mine do, grab the big boxes, or at least one of the two needs to be a big box. Add whatever candies you wish. This is an easily customizable cake.
