Super quick and easy, this cake turns out perfect every time! Serve warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream and some sprinkles or chopped nuts!
Tips for the Best Pudding Cake
Do not stir or mix the topping once sprinkled over top. The water poured over top of the dessert should be very very hot. I use hot tap water (or hot water from my coffee machine). Allow this dessert to rest at least 10-15 minutes after baking so the pudding layer has a chance to set up a bit. Keep pudding cake in a sealed container at room temperature!
