I was really excited to make this dessert for a church potluck this holiday season. Sadly, it never made it to the table and was a great disappointment to myself and my kids who helped make the squares. The reserved cake mixture at first remained batter for the four minutes of baking and then the extra minute I added on burnt it so that was a lost step. This recipe does not specify it but I believe that the pudding mixture should set a little, or state that one should follow the package's directions, because my pudding was liquid even after two days of refrigeration. I can say it tasted good but it was a disgusting mess that was only served to my kids in a bowl.
