Steps to Assemble
  1. Prepare the chocolate cake according to package instructions or your chosen recipe. Allow it to cool completely before cutting it into 1-inch cubes.
  2. Whip up the banana pudding using either a homemade recipe or a boxed mix as directed. Chill until set.
  3. In a mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream on medium-high speed until thickened. Gradually add sugar and vanilla, continuing to whip until soft peaks form.
  4. In a clear glass bowl, layer chocolate cake cubes, banana pudding, sliced bananas, and whipped cream. Repeat layers, finishing with whipped cream and dark chocolate shavings.
  5. Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 3 hours before serving.
