You can vary the flavors of ingredients to suit your taste. This cake came out soooo moist and was gone by the next day. I don't think I'll make a cake any differently from now on!

Blue Ribbon Recipe

This pudding cake is an easy dessert to throw together with simple pantry ingredients. Technically, when you add milk to the pudding, it's four ingredients, but it's still so simple, what's one more ingredient? Once baked, it's moist and a nice treat. We used chocolate pudding and chocolate chips, but you can personalize this dessert with different flavored puddings and baking chips.
