Scale
- 1 box chocolate cake mix
- 3 large eggs
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 1 cup milk (for cake)
- 4 packets hot cocoa mix
- 2 boxes instant chocolate pudding mix (3 oz each)

- Spread the whipped topping evenly over the chilled cake.
- Sprinkle mini marshmallows on top and drizzle with chocolate syrup if desired.
- Slice and serve chilled or slightly softened at room temperature.
Notes
- Make sure to let the cake cool completely before adding the pudding to prevent it from melting.
