How To Make boston cream cake

  • 1
    Bake cake as directed on box. Grease and flour the bottom only of a 13 x 9 inch pan. Pour cake into prepared pan and bake according to directions.
  • 2
    When cake is done baking, cool on rack for 5 minutes. Meanwhile, prepare the pudding as directed on the box. With the handle of a wooden spoon, poke many holes in the warm cake. Spread all the pudding over the cake with a spatula, carefully pressing the pudding into the holes. You will still have a layer of pudding on top of the cake. Cover and refrigerate for at least an hour.
