Preheat your oven according to the instructions on the cake mix box.
Prepare the chocolate cake batter as per the instructions on the box.
Divide the batter evenly into two round cake pans and bake as directed.
Once baked, allow the cakes to cool completely. Once cooled, slice each cake horizontally to create four thin layers of cake.
2. Prepare the Creamy Filling:
In a large mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form.
In another bowl, combine the mascarpone cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Beat until smooth.
Gently fold the whipped cream into the mascarpone mixture until fully incorporated and smooth.
3. Assemble the Dessert:
In a large glass dish (like the one in the image), place one layer of the chocolate cake.
Spread a generous layer of the creamy filling over the cake layer.
Repeat the layering process with the remaining cake layers and creamy filling, finishing with a layer of the creamy filling on top.
Cover the top layer generously with chocolate shavings.
4. Chill and Serve:
Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight, to allow the flavors to meld and the dessert to set.
