Mom's Chocolate Pudding Cake

Mom started making this cake several years ago. I have no idea where the recipe came from but we are all very glad she found it! It doesn't look very pretty but your taste buds will forgive you!--Elnora



German chocolate cake mix
2 small pkg. instant milk chocolate pudding
2 small red-lid Cool-Whip
Candy-broken into pieces (Carmello bars; Reeses; etc.)

Make cake in 9X13 pan according to directions. Cool. Cut cake into 1/4. Cut each 1/4 section in half (horizontally through the middle). Make chocolate pudding in two different bowls. Brake candy into pieces. Assemble cake in a very large bowl. Put half of the cake on the bottom, follow with one bowl of chocolate pudding, half of the candy and half of the cool-whip. Repeat layers with cake, pudding, candy and cool-whip. Refrigerate for a couple of hours before serving.
