Make 1 or 2 circular yellow cakes following the yellow cake recipe from the Better Holmes and Gardens cookbook or if you're going for really easy, I suppose you could use a yellow box cake.
Whip up a box of vanilla pudding.
Make homemade whipped cream (whip a pint of cream, mixing in sugar and vanilla extract to taste, so easy and infinitely better than store bought whipped topping).
Lightly combine the pudding and the whipped cream with a spatula.
After cooling the cake slice them in half through the middle.
Smooth the whipped mixture onto the layers and place the layers on top.
Frosting (sorry I don't have any exact measurements):
Mix butter, powdered sugar, vanilla extract and a little bit of milk in the kitchenaid.
Melt semi-sweet chocolate chips on your double boiler being so careful not to burn. Pour the mixer contents into the double boiler and stir in. Should be a slightly thick frosting. When it tastes how you like, frost the top of your cake. I've made it before frosting all the way down the sides, but then I saw that Wegmans stole my idea and had the frosting just on top exactly how you see here, so apparently I did it right this way with the frosting only on top, not the sides.
