    OR Nurse's Note:

    The crust of this cake comes out very puffy when it is baked. Tastes "airy" like a cream puff. Different from the graham cracker crust you usually see in recipes. Worth the few extra minutes it takes. Excellent for pot lucks.

      This was super easy, everyone loved it, will make it again. Be sure to grease pan well, I greased mine and it still stuck in a non stick pan. May do better on a non stick pan. I did my chocolate a bit different, using the following recipe posted by Chef carolinafan: 1 package Choco-bake (unsweetened liquid chocolate) 2 teaspoons white Karo 2 teaspoons vanilla 3 tablespoons soft margarine 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar 3 tablespoons milk

      Wow! The taste is delicious! The crust rose beautifully on the sides but sunk in the middle when cool, so it makes a nice reservoir for the filling. I didn't think the cream cheese taste came through, which disappointed me. I added chocolate syrup to the pudding mixture as well, which tasted good but then the pudding was much too runny. I would like to try the same, but reduce the milk to 2 cups. I think the flavor would be better as well as the texture.
