Easy Boston Cream Cake Recipe

1 box yellow cake mix
2 boxes (3 1/8 ounce) vanilla pudding mix, not instant

Chocolate Frosting Ingredients:

1/2 cup sugar
1 1/2 tablespoon cornstarch
3 tablespoons cocoa
1/2 cup water
2 tablespoons butter
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1 dash salt

Make cake according to directions on box. Let cool. Split each layer to form 2 layers each, four total. Make pudding according to directions on box. Let cool until set. Divide into thirds.

Place one cake layer on cake plate. Top with 1/3 pudding. Cover with another cake layer and top with pudding. Repeat with third layer; top with pudding. Add fourth layer. Top this and rest of cake with chocolate frosting.

For Frosting: Mix dry ingredients together. Add water. Cook over medium heat until mixture thickens. Remove from heat and add butter and vanilla. Add more water if needed to make frosting thin enough to pour over cake. Chill cake several hours before serving.
