Description
These Boston Cream Pie Cookies are a delightful twist on the classic dessert, featuring soft vanilla cookies filled with a rich vanilla custard and topped with smooth chocolate ganache.
Ingredients
- 1 box yellow cake mix
- 1/3 cup vegetable oil
- 2 eggs
- 1 (3.4 oz) box instant vanilla pudding mix
- 1 1/2 cups milk
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 2 tbsp corn syrup
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a bowl, mix the yellow cake mix, vegetable oil, and eggs until well combined to form a dough.
- Scoop dough onto the prepared baking sheet and slightly flatten. Bake for 8-10 minutes until edges are set. Allow to cool completely.
- In another bowl, whisk together instant vanilla pudding mix and milk until thickened. Refrigerate until ready to use.
- To make the ganache, heat heavy cream in a saucepan until simmering, then pour over the chocolate chips in a bowl. Let sit for 2 minutes, then stir until smooth. Mix in corn syrup and vanilla extract.
- Once cookies are cooled, spoon or pipe the chilled vanilla pudding onto the flat side of one cookie, then top with another cookie to form a sandwich.
- Spoon or drizzle ganache over the top of each sandwich cookie.
- Refrigerate cookies until ready to serve.
Notes
- Ensure cookies are completely cooled before adding the filling to prevent melting.
- Store in the refrigerator for best texture and flavor.
- You can make the pudding and ganache ahead of time and assemble just before serving.
