Vanilla Sheet Cake with Chocolate Filling

6. Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly using a spatula.

7. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

8. While the cake is baking, prepare the chocolate filling. In a small saucepan, heat the heavy cream and unsalted butter over medium heat until the butter is melted and the mixture begins to simmer.

9. Remove the saucepan from the heat and add the semisweet chocolate chips. Let it sit for a minute to allow the chocolate to soften, then stir until smooth and well combined.

10. Once the cake is baked, remove it from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then, transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.

11. Once the cake has cooled, use a sharp knife to cut it horizontally into two equal layers.

12. Spread a generous amount of the chocolate filling onto the bottom layer of the cake, ensuring it is evenly distributed.

13. Place the top layer of the cake on top of the filling, gently pressing down to secure it in place.

14. If desired, you can frost the sides of the cake with buttercream or whipped cream for a finished look.

15. Slice and serve the vanilla sheet cake with chocolate filling, and enjoy its delectable flavors!
