Description

This easy-to-make cake features a flaky crust, a creamy filling, and a drizzle of chocolate for a dessert that’s sure to impress!

Ingredients

Units Scale

For the Crust:

  • 1/2 cup (115 g) unsalted butter
  • 1 cup (240 ml) water
  • 1 cup (125 g) all-purpose flour
  • 4 large eggs

For the Filling:

  • 8 oz (225 g) cream cheese (softened)
  • 2 cups (480 ml) cold milk
  • 2 packages (3.4 oz each) instant vanilla pudding mix
  • 1 cup (240 ml) whipped topping (or homemade whipped cream)

For the Topping:

  • 1/2 cup (120 ml) chocolate syrup or melted chocolate
  • Optional: Powdered sugar for dusting

Instructions

Make the Crust:

  1. Preheat the Oven:
    • Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
  2. Prepare the Dough:
    • In a medium saucepan, combine the butter and water. Bring to a boil over medium heat. Remove from heat and immediately stir in the flour until a ball forms.
  3. Add Eggs:
    • Let the mixture cool slightly. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition, until the dough is smooth and glossy.
  4. Bake:
    • Spread the dough evenly into the prepared baking dish. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until puffed and golden brown. Cool completely.

Make the Filling:

  1. Mix the Cream Cheese:
    • In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth.
  2. Add Pudding Mix and Milk:
    • Gradually add the milk and pudding mix to the cream cheese, beating until thick and creamy.
  3. Fold in Whipped Topping:
    • Gently fold in the whipped topping to lighten the mixture.

Assemble the Cake:

  1. Add the Filling:
    • Spread the filling evenly over the cooled crust.
  2. Top with Chocolate:
    • Drizzle chocolate syrup or melted chocolate over the top. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours to set.

Serve:

  1. Slice and Enjoy:
    • Slice into squares and serve chilled. Dust with powdered sugar if desired.

Notes

  • For a chocolate version, use chocolate pudding mix instead of vanilla.
  • Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • Add a sprinkle of chopped nuts or chocolate shavings for extra texture.
