I had pinned this recipe on Pinterest almost a year ago and am just now getting around to making it. It was really easy (next time I'll have my 10 year old do it) and turned out great. Very moist and yummy. And with pudding instead of frosting I was able to convince myself that it's a lower calorie dessert....though I'm sure it's still loaded with sugar and calories!
Ingredients:
1 Box Chocolate Cake Mix
Ingredients needed to make cake (usually eggs, oil and water)
2 (4 oz.)packages of Instant Oreo pudding
4 cups milk (2% or higher)
Crushed Oreo Cookies, about 10 (optional)
Directions:
1) Make and bake the chocolate cake according to the instructions on the box.
2) Just before the cake is done mix the 2 packages of Oreo pudding and the milk. You want it to sit for just a few minutes so it is set up a bit but still runny enough to pour.
3) Take the cake out of the oven and, while it's still hot, poke holes all over the cake with the stick end of a wooden spoon.
4) Then pour the pudding over the cake, aiming for the holes, and use a spoon to press the pudding down into the holes and then spread the pudding evenly across the whole cake.
5) Refrigerate for one hour, sprinkle crushed Oreos on top, and then you can eat it! Any leftovers need to be kept in the refrigerator.

This website also has a Boston Creme Poke Cake that looks yummy too. I'm going to have to try that one sometime soon....or at least sometime within the next year. That's just the way I roll!
