Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Spray a 13 x 9 inch baking dish with a non-stick cooking spray.
Dark Chocolate Cake:
In a large mixing bowl, beat cake mix, water, oil and eggs together on high-speed until blended. Pour batter into prepared baking dish.
Bake for 60 minutes or until a wooden toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Remove from oven; after a few minutes, poke holes throughout the cake with the end of a wooden spoon; let cool.
Banana Cream Cheese Filling:
In a medium mixing bowl, beat cream cheese together until smooth and creamy, about 2-3 minutes.
In a small mixing bowl, beat banana pudding mix and evaporated milk together until thick and creamy.
Add banana pudding to cream cheese; beat until well combined.
When cake has cooled, add half of the pudding mixture into a quart size freezer bag; close; clip the corner. Squeeze banana filling into each hole of cake; spread remaining pudding mixture over the top of the cake. Spread Cool Whip over the top of pudding; cover with plastic wrap; refrigerate to chill.
When chilled, sprinkle crushed vanilla wafers over the top.
When ready to serve, garnish with sliced bananas.
