The contrast of the cake and the pudding were good, and the flavor was strongly chocolate. It was also fairly easy to make and assemble because of the pudding topped by crumbs. One of the two cakes broke when it came out of the pan, but I was able to rescue it by making it the middle layer and the crumbled coating, so it was a very forgiving recipe. There wasn't a crumb left over, and both the kids and adults seemed to like it. But then again, maybe they were humoring me. There also seemed to be suspiciously few dishes, so I think we had some very considerate guests. I thought it turned out well.

I think it looks fabulous in the photo and have been tempted to make it a few times since that issue of Cooks Country arrived. What’s the verdict on the blackout cake?
