Excellent. I couldn't find a cake mix with pudding in it, so I bought a plain white cake mix and added a box of instant vanilla pudding.

This was okay and is basically a variation on gooey butter cake.

I had never heard of crazy cake before running across this recipe, but I'm glad I'm now familar with it! I made this earlier today and it is scrumptious and very easy to make. This is such an impressive and tasty dessert! My only suggestion is to chill it prior to cutting into it. Thanks for sharing this delicious recipe!
