An amazing Cake!November 14, 2009By uhhmazing
"I made this cake about 2 years ago for my grandmother's birthday. I added vanilla pudding to it, and it was delicious.I wanted to keep it. Although now I'm making one for my sister's birthday which is tomorrow. I haven't baked in two years I hope it turns out all right. Vanilla Pudding makes it VERY moist, so.............. add it! :]"
