1 box (15.25 oz) yellow cake mix
⅓ cup butter, softened
2 eggs
1 package (3.4 oz) instant vanilla pudding
½ cup milk
1¼ cups heavy whipping cream (divided)
¼ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
Preheat oven to 350°F and grease a mini muffin pan.
Mix cake mix, butter, and eggs until a soft dough forms.
Scoop dough into muffin cups (about ⅔ full).
Bake 9–10 minutes until set.
While warm, press the center of each to form a cup.
Let cool completely.
Mix milk and pudding mix in a bowl.
In another bowl, whip 1 cup heavy cream to stiff peaks.
Fold pudding mixture into whipped cream until smooth.
Pipe filling into each cookie cup.
Heat remaining ¼ cup cream with chocolate chips (microwave in short bursts).
Stir until smooth and glossy.
Spoon chocolate over each filled cookie.
My tip: I always press the centers right when they come out of the oven — that’s what gives you that perfect little “cup” shape.
