Anyone have a recipe they like? Are they difficult to make? I wanted a piece for my birthday but no one made one... I guess I will have to make one myself, maybe for christmas. They had one in Kroger, but it was like $15 which seems kinda pricey. (They didn't have any Boston Cream donuts the last two times I was there.)

Years and years ago I used to make them. I don't remember much about
it. I will rummage around and see if I still have the recipe. It was
no trouble to make.

My suggestion is that you just buy a big doughnut and make your own BC doughnut. Just make your own filling and ganache. This would be a good practice for the real thing. Make sure you call it something inappropriate - like Boston Cream Cupcake.

Google Boston Cream Cupcake and you'll find recipes. Seriously!

It's true! I had never seen one before... Now I want one more than ever. There is a bakery down the street a few blocks. I forgot. Surely they have some? At least a doughnut.

What a coinkydink - I'll be making miniature Boston Cream cupcakes for
a retirement party next week. But instead of vanilla cream filling,
I'm making espresso cream, and garnishing each one with a
chocolate-covered coffee bean.

Why don't you check out the bakery section of your local chain
grocery... they might have it cut up into single portions. A single
portion is more the size of a dessert you'd get at a restaurant: big
enough for two to share and maybe little left over to take home.

My local grocery has been putting the entire cake on sale for $5, so
it would be worth it to buy a whole one and give the rest away.

Use a yellow Jiffy cake mix to make a one-layer cake. Follow the
directions and remove it from the pan to cool. Split it in half
horizontally. Spread about 1-1/2 cups cooked, cooled, and chilled
vanilla pudding (with a little almond extract added) on the bottom
section. Put the top part on top of the pudding and pour a thinnish
chocolate icing over all of it. Let it sit in the fridge for a few
hours before cutting it. That should do it.
