BOSTON CREME PIE POKE CAKE RECIPES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°. Grease a 9"-x-13” pan with cooking spray. Prepare cake mix according to box instructions. Pour into prepared baking dish and bake until a toothpick inserted in the middle of the cake comes out clean, about 30 minutes. Cool cake completely, then poke big holes across entire surface of the cake using the rounded end of a wooden spoon. In a medium bowl, whisk together pudding mix and milk until mixture begins to thicken. Pour over the cake and spread with a spatula to make sure the pudding pours into the holes. Cover and refrigerate for 2 hours. Make the ganache: Put chocolate chips in a medium glass bowl and set aside. In a small saucepan over medium-low heat, bring heavy cream to a simmer, then pour over chocolate chips, whisking until smooth. Pour ganache over chilled cake and serve.

Steps:

• Heat the the oil in a 12-inch nonstick skillet. Add the onions, garlic, thyme, and 1/4 teaspoon salt, and cook until the onions are translucent and slightly browned, about 10 minutes. Add the wine to the pan and stir up any brown bits.
• Pour the mixture into a 6 to 7 quart slow cooker.
• Stir the chicken broth, carrots, celery, soy sauce, tapioca, and bay leaves into the slow cooker. Add the chicken thighs to the slow cooker, cover, and cook on low for 4 to 5 hours.
• Remove the chicken to a cutting board and remove the bay leaves from the filling and discard them.
• Shred the chicken, discard the bones, and stir the chicken back into the slow cooker. Add the peas and the heavy cream. Add salt and pepper to taste.
• Heat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Pour the filling mixture into a 9-inch by 13-inch baking dish.
• Unroll the pie crusts and lay one of the rounds on your work surface. Brust half of it with water and lay the other crust over the wet part, and then roll the two pieces together to form one pie crust dough rectangle, about 15 inches by 11 inches.
• Place the crust over the filling, trim and crimp the edges, and bake in a 425 degree F oven for about 25 minutes until the crust is browned and the filling is bubbly.
