- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 tbsp butter
Instructions
- Prepare the yellow cake mix according to package instructions and bake in a cupcake pan. Let them cool completely.

- Using a small knife, cut out the center of each cupcake and fill with the vanilla pudding.

Let the cupcakes cool completely before filling with pudding to prevent melting. For a richer chocolate taste, add more chocolate chips to the ganache. Try using homemade whipped cream for a fresher taste.
