Notes
I used Duncan Hines cake mix for this cake. It contains 15.25 ounces, whereas other brands are only 13.25 ounces.
Be sure to use regular cow's milk (skim, 2%, whole are all fine). The pudding doesn't set up with nondairy milk.
You can serve the cake warm, at room temperature, or cold from the fridge. Add whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top if you'd like!
Store leftover cake tightly covered at room temperature or in the fridge. You can also freeze any extra cake for up to two months.
