Boston Cream Pie

Have you gained five pounds yet with these last couple of posts? So because my cream puffs were a disaster, I had to come up with something else to use the cream with. My meme had made a boston cream pie (cake) before and it was pretty simple. Her filling was more simple (vanilla pudding and whipped cream) but mine would do just perfectly! It was a huge hit at the party!

Boston Cream Pie

1 box yellow cake

*all ingredients on box, 3 eggs, 3/4 cup oil, and 1 1/4 cup water)

Filling

2 cups milk

1 pkg instant vanilla pudding mix

1 can sweetened condensed milk

1 pkg cream cheese (or the 1/3 the fat version that no one can pronounce)

1 container of cool whip or homeade whipped cream

Chocolate Frosting

Divide batter evenly into two 8 inch pans and bake according to the directions on the cake box.

Make sure your pan  (s) are sprayed heavily with pam so that the cake with easily come out.

Once baked, set on separate plates and set in freezer to cool for 30 minutes.

In the mean time...

Directions for filling:

Mix together milk and pudding mix. Add in sweetened condensed milk and cream cheese and mix together until smooth. Add whipped topping and fold in mixture with spatula until well mixed. Put in fridge until ready to use. This will make to much but its delicious!

Take out one of the cakes and top with plenty of filling, it might run over the sides but that is Okay! Place back in freezer for at least 15 minutes.

Once filling has set take out of freezer and place the other 8 inch cake on top. Frost with Chocolate Frosting!

Serve and Enjoy!

This recipe takes a while because of the cooling time but other than that is super easy!
