I've used this recipe from the Kraft website many times and am so glad to see it here. It really is a cheater's version of a classic Boston cream pie but even though it's easy to make, the taste is wonderful. I don't make many cakes but when I do, I head for this recipe. I make it just as posted. Thanks for posting this recipe!
