Boston Cream Fudge
A decadent fusion of a classic Boston cream pie and silky, melt-in-your-mouth fudge. This sweet treat is the perfect blend of a moist, fluffy yellow cake and a creamy vanilla pudding, all layered between rich, chocolatey fudge. A final drizzling of melted semi-sweet chocolate on top brings this dessert to new heights of deliciousness.

Instructions
- Line a 9x9-inch baking dish with parchment paper, and set aside.
- In a large saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat.
- Add the granulated sugar and evaporated milk to the saucepan. Stirring constantly, bring the mixture to a boil.
- Allow the mixture to boil for 5 minutes, continuing to stir constantly.
- Remove the saucepan from the heat. Stir in the marshmallow creme and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth.
- Pour half of the fudge mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly.
- In a separate bowl, prepare the yellow cake mix according to the package instructions. Then, pour the cake batter over the fudge layer in the baking dish.
- In another saucepan, prepare the instant vanilla pudding mix with the milk according to the package instructions. After it's prepared, pour the pudding over the cake batter in the baking dish.
- Pour the remaining fudge mixture over the pudding layer, spreading it evenly.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the semi-sweet chocolate chips in the microwave in 30-second intervals. Be sure to stir the chocolate in between each interval until it is smooth.
- Drizzle the melted chocolate over the top of the fudge.
- Refrigerate the fudge for at least 2 hours, or until set. Once it's set, cut into squares and serve.
Tips
- For a fun variation, try using different flavors of cake mix or pudding - like chocolate or strawberry!
- Ensure all layers are fully cooled before adding the next to prevent them from blending together.
