Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and prepare a 9x13-inch cake pan by greasing it lightly.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the chocolate cake mix, chocolate fudge pudding mix, sour cream, vegetable oil, milk, eggs, vanilla extract, and salt. Mix until well combined, about 2 minutes.
- Place the pan in your preheated oven and bake for 28-32 minutes until a cake tester comes out clean.
- Remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for about 30 minutes.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the chocolate instant pudding mix and 2 cups of cold milk for about 2 minutes until it starts to thicken.
- Spread the prepared chocolate pudding over the top of the cake, ensuring it fills all the holes.
- In a large bowl, combine heavy cream, powdered sugar, and the chocolate pudding mix. Whisk until thick and fluffy.
- Generously spread the frosting over the entire top of the poked cake.
- Using a food processor, pulse the Oreo cookies until they turn into fine crumbs. Evenly sprinkle these crumbs over the frosting layer.
- Take the Milano cookies and use black gel icing to write 'R.I.P.' on each one. Press these cookies into the frosting to create tombstones.
- Gently press the ghost Peeps into the frosting and arrange the candy pumpkins around for decoration.
- If desired, sprinkle Halloween-themed sprinkles over the cake before serving.
