recipe reviews for:

Chocolate Pudding Cake I

“This is a very quick and simple no bake dessert cake. I've been making it for years without a written recipe. I have also tried it with different flavors such as Coconut/Pineapple. This recipe lends itself well to experimentation. Note: If desired, chopped nuts may be added to the pudding before spreading over cake, or may be sprinkled over the top of the pudding before adding the whipped topping layer.”

This is also wonderful if you use vanilla pudding and layer with strawberries. It is a delicious and easy way to serve a strawberry shortcake like desert to a large group.

We make this dessert but use pistachio pudding and mix it with the whipped topping instead of keeping it separated. We grate a Heath toffee bar on top. Great for Easter with the bright green color and delicious...so fresh and light and yummy!

This can be called many things, but it is not a pudding cake. It is more widely known as a trifle. A pudding cake is a cake that you bake and it makes it's own pudding under it. The recipe itself is a good one, but it is trifle. It is even better with chocolate cake instead of angel food.

This is not a "cake." It's a trifle.

I agree. I'm confused. Do you use a box of each type of pudding, or just 1 box of instant? Sounds like a good recipe. I will try it, but first need to know how much pudding to use.

**Directions don't sound like there is supposed to be regular AND instant pudding. Am I missing something? Extra chocolate is never a bad thing!

So good! However, after the first day it gets a little soggy.
