Christina's Notes
- Use Quality Mixes: Choose a chocolate cake mix and pudding mix you already love—since these are the base of the recipe, quality makes a difference.
- Don’t Stir: Resist the urge to mix the layers once added to the pan. The “dump and bake” method creates the best texture.
- Watch the Bake Time: Check for doneness starting at 35 minutes; it should be set but still a little gooey in the middle.
- Serve Warm: This cake is best when served warm—perfect with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
