Piñata Cake

I have a friend who LOVES boxed yellow cake. It is by far her favorite kind of cake. Last year I made a Burger cake at her bridal shower and the bar has been set. I couldn't just make a regular cake for her birthday this year. So after  I scourged around on pinterest, here's what I came up with...a Piñata Cake!!!










CAKE  
2x Yellow Cake box mix; follow box directions

CHOCOLATE BUTTERCREAM FROSTING
8oz Semisweet Chocolate
1/3c heavy cream
1/2c butter, room temperature

2-3c confectioners sugar

FILLING
M&M's Candy Cut
Reeses Pieces Candy

Half each box of cake mix and bake in 9" round pans; you will end up with 4 layers to the cake. Let cool completely.

Melt the chocolate in a double boiler, add cream and stir. Put the ganache in a stand mixer, with paddle attachment, and butter. Add powdered sugar then set aside.

Cut the center out of two of the cakes. These will be the middle layers. Frost and stack the cake with the center layers cut out to leave a hole. Fill the hole with Candy and continue Stacking and frosting the cake closed.

Fin!
