I was happily surprised to find this recipe online. I invited my parents over supper to celebrate my mom's birthday and asked her what she wanted for her birthday desert she said moon cake. I remembered eating it as a kid and loved it. Thanks TARYN003 for submitting and I'm sure my mom would like to thank you too! :)

Such a fantastic, light recipe. It's a great dessert option when you don't want something rich and heavy. Every time I make it, people ask me for the recipe. The only things I change are that I use real whipped cream and that I add an extra 1/2 cup milk to the pudding because the pudding barely covers the crust. Sometimes I also add crushed, toasted almonds on top. But this recipe is really fantastic as is.

I had an ex-boyfriend whose mom always made this for him for his birthdays, so one day I decided to surprise him with this and it was a hit! I had never made it before but he said it came out perfect. I used all chocolate pudding since that was his favorite, instead of vanilla I think the recipe calls for.

This was a good recipe. The only problems I had were with the crust. In the end it turned out fine. I brought it to my friends and they loved it! I will definitely be making this recipe again.

I made it just like the recipe. Very tasty--reminds me of cream puffs. I might make it next time with chocolate pudding, for the chocolate lovers in our house.

This is great! I get asked for this recipe every time I make it. I did make a few adjustments. I sometimes leave out the cream cheese because I have a hard time getting it to blend well. And instead of the chocolate syrup, I use that chocolate shell syrup stuff and I feel it turns out a little better.

Make it Diabetic friendly in a blink of an eye!Use sugar-free pudding, and low-fat milk and cream cheese. Instead of chocolate syrup, melt bittersweet/dark chocolate chips to drizzle over the top, as they are lower in sugar. So delicious and easy. People love the diabetic version!

This recipe is wonderful - especially if you add a layer of fruit (freshed or canned) between the pudding mixture and whipped cream. I am asked for the recipe all the time!

A complete fiasco. I must have done something wrong, because everyone else seemed to love the cake, but I did not care for it. The consistency prevented me from tasting the cake. Now I'm stuck with a block of cake.

I made this for my hubby's birthday. He loved it. I think that frozen whipped topping (in Oz we don't have this) must be cream, so I used fresh cream and I also crumbled a dark choc flake over the top instead of topping. Was delicious! Definately do again.

I wish I could give it more stars! Made for a dinner party last night and 9 people ate the whole thing. I did add 1 pouch of vanilla sugar to base/choux pastry, used fat free cream cheese and skim milk for pudding mixture, whipped 2 cups of whipping cream with 1 pouch of vanilla sugar for cool whip (I don't like cool whip) and used 1 can of Hersheys chocolate syrup to cover the top, didn't do fancy pattern! Found the pan really slippery and hard to put dough into, next time won't grease, used fingers to smoosh down. Made it last night for church potluck, first dessert to go and everyone wanted the recipe! thanks!

This was AWESOME! I'm going to use French Vanilla pudding the next time as suggested by a reviewer and also try chocolate pudding. I was concerned when the cake came out of the oven all puffy, but it quickly went down. What an easy way to make a great dessert. Don't use fat free cream cheese because you can't beat the lumps out of it.

We did not enjoy this at all. The cake was like a dutch baby without the sugar. The pudding mixture was the only thing we enjoyed because of a few modifications and that is why I gave this three stars instead of one. This desert is not consistent and the toping doesn't compliment the cake well. Okay so the three stars goes to the awesome toping which is very much like a mousse. I made this again tonight using chocolate pudding and cream cheese. If you let the cream cheese sit before whipping it will not clump. Its worth it for the top, but the cake part sucks.

I followed other reviewers advice and whipped the cr. cheese,then gradually added the milk and finally mixed in the pudding mix which minimized lumps. Made this for a large gathering and everyone enjoyed it. Rich but not overly sweet.

This was so GOOD! My son and I made it and loved it! The texture was so interesting. I never did figure out why it was called "moon cake", unless it was for the uneveness of the surface...but we will definitely make it again!

This is a fantasitic recipe. My whole family enjoyed it. I made it for my children's Confirmation, and it was perfect choice, the other reviews helped, especially with the cream cheese. My only thought is to use chocolate Shell ice cream topping, instead of chocolate syrup. Thanks for the recipe, I will keep it handy.
