Ingredients
Scale
- 1 Fluffy Yellow Cake
- 2 cups French Vanilla Pudding
- 1 cup Chocolate Filling (ganache or sauce)

Instructions
- Prepare the Yellow Cake: Bake according to the package instructions or your homemade recipe. Allow the cake to cool completely on a wire rack.

- Chill: Cover the trifle with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 120 minutes before serving.
