Ingredients

Scale
  • 15.25 ounces white cake mix
  • 3 egg whites
  • ½ cup vegetable oil
  • ½ cup Greek yogurt
  • ¾ cup whole milk
  • 5.1 ounces instant vanilla pudding mix
  • 2 ¾ cups whole milk (for pudding)
  • 2 cups heavy cream
  • 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • Sweetened shredded coconut and Easter sprinkles (for topping)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven according to cake mix instructions.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the white cake mix, egg whites, vegetable oil, Greek yogurt, and whole milk. Mix until well blended, then add gel food coloring as desired.
  3. Pour the batter into a greased 9×13 inch baking dish and bake per package directions or until a toothpick comes out clean. Allow cooling completely.
  4. Whisk together instant vanilla pudding mix and 2 ¾ cups of whole milk in a separate bowl until thickened. Once the cake has cooled, poke holes across its surface using a fork.
  5. Pour the pudding mixture over the cake to fill the holes evenly, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
  6. Beat heavy cream with granulated sugar until soft peaks form, then spread over the chilled pudding layer.
  7. Garnish with sweetened coconut and optional Easter sprinkles before serving.
