Here below is an excerpt about this recipe from the website

 

You can ignore the ingredients listed on the cake mix instructions; eggs, Greek yogurt, instant pudding mix and water are all you need to make this confection. However, if you want an outrageously moist cake, you can whip in 3/4 cup vegetable oil as you beat in the other ingredients.

Double the recipe to make the massive, three-layered wonder shown in this video (and have one layer leftover for later… or go all the way and bake a four layer cake).

DIRECTIONS

1. Bake the Cake: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease and flour the bottom and sides of two 8″ round cake pans. Mix all of the cake ingredients in a large bowl and divide batter evenly between the two pans.

2. Bake until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes back with just a few crumbs (no gooey batter), 40 to 45 minutes. Set aside to cool.

3. Make the Ganache: Pour heavy cream into a large saucepan over medium heat. Bring the heavy cream to a simmer, and once you see tiny bubbles form around the edges, remove from heat and add chocolate chips, whisking until combined. Let mixture chill until it reaches a spreadable consistency, at least 20 minutes, before frosting cake.

4. Top one round cake with ganache frosting, then place the second cake on top of it. Frost the top and sides of the cake. Serve.
