Hi All,
A friend on another group was opining that she could not find a chocolate pudding cake mix anymore, and I said there were numerous recipes for same. I HAVE lots of recipes, but then it occurred to me that a tried-and-true one would be much nicer for her, and I know some of you must have experimented with this. Thanks! -- Jean B. |

Betty Crocker's and Pillsbury's cakes (virtually) all have pudding in the mix, so you don't have to add your own packet. As far as I know, Duncan Hines is the only way to get non-pudding cake mix. So, if she wants to bake from a mix, suggest that she check again. Carol Crocker -- "Years ago my mother used to say to me...

I forgot that was ambiguous. -- Jean B. |

My mom used to make pudding cake from a mix when we were kids, and I too haven't seen it lately (although I'm a diabetic and shouldn't know about such things anyway). It wasn't a cake with pudding mix in it. I don't remember how you made it, but the result was a layer of pudding on the bottom and cake on the top. We would spoon it into bowls still hot, add cinnamon sugar and then condensed milk from a can. -- Dan Abel Sonoma State University AIS Yes, that type. I have LOTS of recipes but haven't tried any. I would be tempted to try one/some now, but that would not be conducive to weight loss! -- Jean B. |

I was not impressed. Nor have I. I usually make Hershey's "Perfectly Chocolate" Chocolate Cake. Carol -- "Years ago my mother used to say to me...

Sorry for the delay, but there are two basic variants: The simpler one, which originated probably in the old (not the newer) Fanny Farmer cookbooks, is on this website, but use butter rather than margarine: http://www.deliciousdecisions.org/cb/show_search.cfm?RecipeID1=135&Nutrition1='Desserts +and+Beverages'&st=1 The more complex variant is he http://www.recipesource.com/desserts...4/rec1449.html Both are called Denver Chocolate Pudding Cake, by the way. The use of coffee rather than water makes a far more interesting cake/pudding. pavane |
