  1. Well I had a bit of trouble finding a box white cake mix with pudding ( I have never seen it here it actually), so I improvised using a packet of vanilla cake mix and a vanilla pudding mix together and using milk instead of water and 2 eggs. I followed the rest of the instructions as per recipe and then I used normal cream (whipped). I wasnt sure if it would turn out (changing the ingredients) but wow it was fantastic and looked so pretty! The family loved it. A light and cool dessert to follow a heavy meal and it would go so on a warm night as a dessert also. Taster Tester a wonderful recipe, I will be making again. Thank You.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

Our family moved to Florida from New York in the 90's, so I've brought not only many of the recipes my family has passed down, but have learned to cook some great Southern dishes as well.? When I found RZ, it opened up a whole new world of cooking -- cuisine from different countries, tried-and-true family hand-me-down recipes, and some interesting and delicious dishes I would never have found on my own.
