Notes

Ingredient Substitutions: You can use any chocolate cake mix you prefer, or substitute it with a gluten-free mix if needed. For a creamier experience, consider using chocolate mousse instead of the pudding. Optional Variations: Experiment with different flavored pudding mixes, such as vanilla or butterscotch, for a unique twist. You can also layer in your favorite candy bars for added crunch. Storage: Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Enjoy it cold, as the flavors will continue to develop!
