Ingredients:

  • 1 box (15.25 oz) yellow cake mix
  • 1 cup water
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 package (3.4 oz) instant vanilla or banana pudding mix
  • 2 cups cold whole milk
  • 1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
  • 8 oz whipped topping, thawed

Instructions:

  1. Preheat oven according to the cake mix box instructions. Combine yellow cake mix, water, eggs, and oil; mix until batter is smooth. Pour into a 9x13 inch baking pan and bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let cake cool for 15–20 minutes.
  2. Using a wooden skewer or spoon handle, poke holes across the surface of the cake approximately 1 inch apart, pushing halfway down into the cake.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the instant pudding mix and cold milk until thickened.
  4. Slowly pour the sweetened condensed milk over the cake to fill the holes, then spoon the thickened pudding mixture over the top and smooth with a spatula.
  5. Cover the pan loosely with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours.
  6. Top with whipped topping and optional fresh berries or shaved chocolate before serving.
