Tips:

  • Use a medium box of instant vanilla pudding mix (3.4 ounces) or 1 (4-serving) package of Jell-O Instant Pudding mix. Larger size boxes will cause the batter to be too thick.
  • Do not overbeat the batter. Overbeating will develop the gluten in the flour and make the cake tough.
  • Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Overbaking will dry out the cake.
  • Allow the cake to cool completely before frosting. Frosting a warm cake will cause the frosting to melt and slide off.
  • Store the cake in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. You can also freeze the cake for up to 3 months. Thaw the cake overnight in the refrigerator before serving.
