Huskers Like Cake!

I can't wait to eat this!! It's a recipe for BOSTON CREAM PIE, why they call a cake a pie in Boston is beyond me. Premier run on this recipe, but I can tell you the icing tasted fudgy, the filling was creamy, and the cake....don't know yet but it looks good! The original recipe said to use one layer of the cake and cut it horizontally, but what would I do with the other layer cake??? I just used them both. This picture was taken outside since it said to refrigerate for an hour, and it definitely wouldn't fit in my frig today. Rest assured I put it in an airtight cake carrier so nothing could creep in, not even a 4 legged Maddie dog. I'm taking this to a Husker party tonight, let's hope it's a celebration cake!

BOSTON CREAM PIE

1 pkg (3.4 oz) JELL-O vanilla flavor instant pudding
1 cup cold milk
1 1/2 cups thawed cool whip
1 yellow cake mix - baked according to directions in 2 round pans
1 square semi sweet Bakers chocolate
1 Tbsp butter
3/4 cup powdered sugar
2 Tbsp milk

Beat pudding mix and 1 cup cold milk 2 minutes. Stir in cool whip, let stand 5 minutes.

Stack first cake layer on serving plate, spread pudding mixture on and top with second layer.

Microwave chocolate and butter 1 min. Stir until chocolate is melted. Add sugar and 2 Tbsp milk; mix well. Spread over cake and refrigerate for 1 hour.
