Updated on Nov 19, 2011

I made this one year by mistake. I was gonna just bake the cake & frost it with the COOL WHIP, but i mistakely chopped up the cake & placed it in a bowl. I had to come up with something quick cause my brother David was lauging at me. It looked wired but tasted good. Never knew what to call it or if it had a name until I came across this recipe. My mistake had a name & many other recipes.
