All i can say is wow, what a pudding! I didn't fancy nuts so added some chop chips and mini marchmallows. It turned out brilliantly, Kittencal you are my favourite chef!!! I love all your recipes and can now add this to my list of favourites!! Thanks for sharing

VERY NICE! I made this with Splenda products and milk. I subbed frozen dark sweet cherries for the walnuts. It turned out with a thick pudding layer and thin cake layer. My husband absolutely loved this...I didn't think it was the greatest thing to sub Splenda in. I'll try it with the real stuff some day. I enjoyed it with cool whip lite. Made for the Zaar tag game.

I love dessert recipes that are quick & easy to make when you have a craving for something sweet! Aside from scaling this recipe in half & using pecans (you know how I feel about walnuts!!), I followed the instructions. I opted for milk & served with frozen vanilla yogurt. Thanx for another delicious dessert Carol!

I'm sorry to have to say I didn't really care for this. I have made this in several variations (I'm always looking for a better recipe for this!) and this is one of the worse ones I've tried. I followed the recipe exactly. However, the cake part was really not chocolatey at all, I thought, and there wasn't nearly enough of the pudding. In addition, what there was, was so thin it wasn't much of a "pudding" at all. I'm sorry, Kittencal - I usually really like your recipes - but this just didn't work for us.

Very yummy comfort food here! I served this with Breyers Double Churn Light Ice Cream and it was sooo good. I baked it in a dark glass pan and *almost* burned it at 41 minutes baking time. Next time, I'll pull it out of the oven at 38 minutes or so. Prep time for me was closer to 25 minutes. Also, I used pecan halves instead of walnuts. I'll be making this one again and again!
