Chocolate Creme Cakes

• 1 (18 1/4 ounce) package chocolate cake mix
• 1 (4 ounce) package instant chocolate pudding mix
• 3/4 cup vegetable oil
• 3/4 cup water
• 4 eggs
• Filling
• 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 1 cup milk
• 1/2 cup butter or 1/2 cup margarine, softened
• 1/2 cup shortening
• 1 cup sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1. In a mixing bowl, combine cake and pudding mixes, oil, water and eggs, mix well. Pour into a greased and floured 13 in x 9 in x 2 inch baking pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes; invert onto a wire rack to cool completely.
2. In a small saucepan, combine flour and milk until smooth. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Cool.
3. In a mixing bowl, cream the butter, shortening, sugar and vanilla; beat in milk mixture until sugar is dissolved, about 5 minutes.
4. Split cake into two horizontal layers. Spread filling over the bottom layer; cover with top layer. Cut into serving size pieces.
5. Freeze in an air tight container for up to 1 month. Remove from the freezer 1 hour before serving.
