Ingredients
Scale
- 1 box (15.25 oz) Devil’s Food Chocolate Cake Mix, plus ingredients listed on the box
- 1 (14 oz) can sweetened condensed milk
- 12 oz semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1/3 cup heavy cream
- 1 1/2 cups heavy cream (for topping)
- 1/3 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 7 oz (about 2 cups) marshmallow fluff
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips (for ganache drizzle)
- 3 tablespoons heavy cream (for ganache drizzle)
Instructions
- Preheat oven according to cake mix directions. Grease a 9×13-inch pan and prepare the batter as directed on the box.
- Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool for 5 minutes while still warm.
- Using the handle of a wooden spoon, poke holes evenly over the top of the warm cake about 1 inch apart.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, combine sweetened condensed milk, 1/3 cup heavy cream, and 12 oz chocolate chips. Microwave 30–60 seconds, then stir until smooth.
- Pour the chocolate mixture slowly into the holes, allowing it to soak through the cake. Spread remaining mixture on top.
- Let the cake cool for 1 hour at room temperature, then refrigerate for 2–3 hours until fully chilled.
- In a large bowl, whip 1 1/2 cups heavy cream until soft peaks form. Add powdered sugar and vanilla; continue whipping until stiff peaks form. Fold in marshmallow fluff gently until smooth.
- Spread the marshmallow whipped cream evenly over the chilled cake.
- In a small bowl, melt 1/2 cup chocolate chips with 3 tablespoons heavy cream until smooth. Transfer to a piping or zip-lock bag and drizzle over the top. Swirl with a toothpick for a marbled look.
- Chill for 30 minutes before serving. Slice and enjoy cold.
