This recipe is in a book by Emilie Barnes, and in it, the recipe is entitled Emilie's Triple Chocolate Cake. I tweaked it by using the large 5 oz package of pudding. It makes the cake twice as moist, brownielike, and delectable. I also omit the chocolate chips and cool the cake, then drizzle melted chocolate chips, followed by melted white chocolate chips. Gives it a really easy but classy appearance!

Yummy! I took this to a summer cook-out and everyone loved it, but I sure could of used a big glass of cold milk with it. The cake tasted great, but didn't look so good. I need to figure out how to get it out of the pan in a form that looks better. I also used chocolate icing, but I may experiment with the icing next time.

I make this all the time and it is really moist and easy. Our favorite version is a yellow cake mix with butterscotch pudding and butterscotch chips on the top. Yummy!

Holy chocolaty goodness!!!! I added like half cup of sour cream too...because I always add sour cream to cakes. It's so moist and yummy! Not sickening sweet...my family and I loved it! Beware! You must have a tall glass of milk on hand!!!

This is really good!! Not gooey, just moist and delicious. I topped with Cool Whip, but a nummy frosting would be better I think. I will make this again. THANKS!

Probably the best cake ever. It was extremely moist and rich, just absolutely delicious. I made vanilla frosting for it and topped it with strawberries and it was amazing. You can easily switch it up and make a yellow cake with non-instant vanilla pudding and it's yummy as well. My mom loved both cakes so much she requested a layered cake for Mother's Day. Everyone who had it raved about it. You should definitely try it, it's easy to make and very very good. One tip though, when you make the pudding and it gets thick don't just add the cake mix and stir it together. Doing that makes it look too thick and not easily workable. I put the pudding and the mix into a bowl and mixed them together. Doing that gave it more of a batter texture and easier to work with.

very quick and deserves its name, it's easy enough. I followed the directions exactly and had no difficulty; it was good eaten still warm from the oven. This morn it's far less moist.

I can't believe how good this is, because it is so easy! Didn't really know what to frost is with though because everyone commented about how rich it was. I simply put cool whip on top and even my picky 5 year old loved it. He even requested it for his birthday! All I have to say is WOW

This was simply the easiest and best recipe I have tried in a long time. If you want to make it into cupcakes, it works great that way. Everyone likes it and it has a great taste but not too sweet.

Excellent cake! It was so quick and easy to make. Very moist.

I was a little disappointed in this cake. It was bland, the peanut butter chips dried out over top the cake and I ended up having to frost this because of the lack of flavor. It wasn't the worst cake I've ever made but I don't think I would make this again.

Everyone really enjoyed this cake and it was really easy. It is very rich! Ice cream or milk a must.

This was deffinately the easiest recipe I have made, BUT not the best. Consistency and texture were great but it could have used more flavor. I thought it was blan and needed more punch. Would I make it again? Maybe for an "goody day" at the office but not for home again.

This cake tasted good and was very rich. The only problem I had was when I mixed the dry cake mix in with the hot pudding, it started to cook the cake and it was hard to spread in the pan. Overall it was a good cake, if you are a die hard chocolate fan!

chocolate and more chocolate! I put lots of chocolate on. But I didn't like it as much because it is very sickly. But if you have a strong stomach put as much chocolate as you want, but don't be sick! and don't eat too much because you will damage your teeth.

This is a recipe that my Mom made for our family for years. She past on before she could pass on the recipe to any of us. Thank God I found it here. Now I make it for my Dad's birthday. We use aluminum foil to line the cake pan. It makes it easier to remove from the pan since the chocolate chips melt and are still gooey when you need to remove it from a greased pan. I tried it with the greased and floured pan and either got it out still warm and gooey to make a mess or waited till it cooled completely only to leave half still in the pan because the grease re-solidified and stuck it to the sides and bottom. YUM-YUM

Although I don't have kids let me tell you. . . I made this for my husband for his birthday and took some to work because it is SO rich. Everyone loved it. Some said it was the best chocolate cake they had ever eaten. One of my good friends asked me to make it for his birthday coming up! I made it even more chocolatey though. I used a dark fudge cake mix(or something like that) and used peanut butter chips on top, then put dark chocolate icing on top of that! It was so rich and so good!!!! If you love chocolate you will be in heaven.
