Directions
- 1Preheat oven to 350°F and spray a 9x13 baking dish or pan with cooking spray.
- 2Whisk 3 ½ cups of milk and the vanilla instant pudding together in a medium bowl for 2 minutes or until it starts to thicken.
- 3Let the pudding mixture rest for 4 minutes, then cover it with plastic wrap and chill while you make the cake.
- 4Combine the remaining 1 cup of milk and butter in a large microwave-safe bowl or measuring cup, and heat in the microwave in 1-minute intervals until the butter is completely melted and the milk is steaming.
- 5In a large mixing bowl, add the cake mix, eggs, and the heated milk and butter mixture.
- 6Use an electric mixer to mix the batter together until just combined.

- 10Once the cake is cool, pour the heavy whipping cream into a small, microwave-safe bowl, and heat in 1-minute intervals until steaming.
- 11Add the chocolate chips and corn syrup to the cream and let them stand for 3 minutes.
- 12Stir the mixture until the chocolate chips have melted and the ganache is smooth.
- 13Use the end of a wooden spoon or a thick skewer to poke holes in the cake about 1 inch apart.
- 14Spoon the set vanilla pudding over the cake, and spread it out evenly, ensuring that the pudding fills the holes.
