Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the yellow cake mix, melted butter, eggs, milk, and vanilla extract. Mix until well combined.
  3. Divide the batter evenly between the prepared cake pans. Smooth the tops with a spatula.
  4. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  5. Remove from the oven and let the cakes cool in the pans for 10 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  6. In a medium mixing bowl, combine the cocoa powder, malted milk powder, powdered sugar, and heavy cream. Beat until smooth and creamy.
  7. Place one cake layer on a serving plate and spread a layer of the chocolate malt buttercream frosting on top. Place the second cake layer on top and frost the entire cake with the remaining frosting.
  8. Sprinkle the chocolate chips on top of the cake for decoration.
  9. Let the cake rest for at least 30 minutes before serving.
  10. Enjoy!
