For the Strawberry Fridge Cake Recipe you posted. can youPlease let me know if the box of Vanilla Pudding in the recipe is for a Large or Small box of Pudding?
Thank you,
It was very hard to get frozen strawberries to become liquid with only 2TLBS of water. I ended up mixing in mixer. Still did not pour like the video showed. Never went all down in the holes. What was your secret?
I added more water to mine and more sugar to make an almost syrup consistenacy
Love this cake!
The Strawberry Cake Mix didn’t call for butter. It called for oil. The pudding and milk mixture was too stiff with the Cool Whip. It was very hard to spread on top of cake…didn’t cover the cake. Was additional Cool Whip used to make it look like the picture?
