Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, mix yellow cake mix, eggs, and vegetable oil until a soft dough forms.
Roll dough into 1-inch balls and place 2 inches apart on the baking sheet. Slightly flatten each ball.
Bake for 8–10 minutes, until edges are golden. Let cool completely.
For the cream filling, whisk cold milk and pudding mix for 2 minutes. Let it sit for another 2 minutes to thicken, then gently fold in whipped topping. Chill until ready to use.
To make ganache, heat heavy cream in a small saucepan until it begins to simmer. Remove from heat and add chopped chocolate. Let sit for 2 minutes, then whisk until smooth. Let it cool slightly to thicken.
Spread about 1 tablespoon of cream filling on the flat side of half the cookies. Top with remaining cookies to form sandwiches.
Spoon or drizzle ganache over the tops of the cookie sandwiches. Let sit until chocolate sets.

Notes

Ensure cookies are fully cooled before assembling to keep the filling from melting.

Chill the cream filling before using for easier handling.

Cookies can be made a day ahead; assemble on the day of serving.

Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.

Cookie shells can be frozen separately for up to 2 months.
