Red Velvet Pudding Cake

"This is a recipe lent to me by my friend, a Pampered Chef representative. She uses this cake as a demo at her house for her parties. Chocolate cake with a "raspberry pudding." I think it is like eating a giant chocolate truffle!"

  1. raspberry and chocolate together. one of my friend's wanted to eat this by herself and nearly did. i have to arm wrestle her for the last piece.(only kidding) but it does taste like a chocolate raspberry truffle, incredible and easy!!!
     
  2. Oh my goodness Dawn...probably one of the best cakes around, made it this past weekend for company, the just loved it... it's just delicious, the raspberries seem to give it a real zing.... and easy to make also...a 5 star all the way. Thanx for a wonderful recipe :-)
     
  3. Love this recipe!! The raspberries really lift the chocolate cake; what a fantastic idea to use fresh raspberries and gelatin powder. I topped the cake with whipped cream and then sprinkled the chocolate on top; it made the perfect top to this glorious, almost truffle like cake. Will definitely be making this again!
     
  4. I made this in two 9" round pans because I could not find my 9"x13". It worked out great, I was able to keep one at my place, and bring one to work. Everyone loved it, and ate it all up right away. They all asked for the recipe too. I was a bit worried pouring all that jello on it, but it turned out amazing. Definitely will make again. Thanks for the recipe!!
     
  5. I usually stay clear of recipes call for packaged cake mix but this recipe sounded so good I couldn't resist. This was very easy to prepare and had great flavor. Love the raspberry sauce that is created under the cake. The directions did not state to turn out the cake so I left it in the baking dish, frosted it with whipped cream, and then sprinkled with fresh raspberries and shaved chocolate. YUM! Next time I think I will try turning out the cake so the raspberry sauce is more visible. Thanks for posting!

I?m ?originally from Texas, but now live in Florida. Still gotta have that spice though....love chipotle peppers, habaneros, and jalapenos. This is a picture of myself & my 2 daughters taken in Dec'06. I am working on my graduate degree, & still work as a nurse prn. When I'm not cooking and eating what I cook... I head for the gym to work out. As far as cookbooks, I love the church/ community cookbooks, where someone has dug out old handwritten recipes by granny and shared them with others-those are the best kind. If I had a month off, I'd for sure go hiking, would love to visit Australia and New Zealand.?
