Ingredients

  • 15.25 oz box chocolate cake mix
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 cup of milk
  • 1/3 cup vegetable oil
  • 1/2 cup M&M’S® milk chocolate , more for decoration
  • 1/2 cup DOVE® chocolate eggs

For the cream

  • 2 cups milk
  • 12 oz evaporated milk , 1 can
  • 14 oz condensed milk , 1 can

For the whipped topping

  • 2 cups heavy cream
  • 3 tablespoons sugar

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • In a large bowl and using an electric mixer, combine cake mix, eggs, milk and oil. Fold in M&M’S® chocolate and DOVE® chocolate eggs. Transfer the cake batter to a greased 9x13 inch baking pan. Bake until a tooth pick that has been entered in the middle comes out clean, about 30-35 minutes.
  • Remove cake from the oven.
  • To make the cream, mix 2 cups of milk, evaporated milk and condensed milk until well combined.
  • While the cake is still warm, poke holes all over the cake using a fork. Then, pour the milk mixture over the top. Place in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours. Better if left overnight.
  • After the two hour have passed, begin making the whipped frosting. Using an electric mixer, beat heavy cream and sugar, until it becomes fluffy and creamy, about 2-3 minutes. Frost cake with whipped topping. Top with extra M&M’S® for decoration.
  • Keep cake in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
