Chocolate Pudding Cake I

Servings: 24
Yield: 24 servings

Description

This is a very quick and simple no bake dessert cake. I’ve been making it for years without a written recipe. I have also tried it with different flavors such as Coconut/Pineapple. This recipe lends itself well to experimentation. Note: If desired, chopped nuts may be added to the pudding before spreading over cake, or may be sprinkled over the top of the pudding before adding the whipped topping layer.

Ingredients

1 (10 inch) angel food cake
1 (5 9/10 ounce) package instant chocolate pudding mix
1 (8 ounce) container frozen whipped topping, thawed
1 (1 6/11 ounce) bar milk chocolate

Directions

1 Tear angel food cake into bite size pieces into a 9x13 inch cake pan (preferably glass).
2 Prepare chocolate pudding as directed on package. Gently spread over the top of cake pieces, spreading to edges of pan.
3 Carefully spread whipped topping over chocolate pudding, spreading to edges of pan and taking care not to mix with pudding.
4 Using a cheese grater or vegetable peeler, grate chocolate bar over the whipped topping.
5 Chill until ready to serve, at least one hour.
