• 1 3oz box instant vanilla pudding
• 1/3-1/2cup oil (depending on cake mix brand)
• 1 Box German Chocolate cake mix
• 8 oz cream cheese – soft
• 1/4 cup water (depending on cake mix brand)

How to make it:

1. Combine cake mix, vanilla pudding, eggs, and oil & water according to cake mix package instructions.
2. Beat until smooth and pour into two 8″ pans – greased & floured or sprayed with something like Bakers Joy (I spray them).
3. Bake at 350 for 35 minutes.
4. Remove and cool layers.
5. With a STAND ALONE MIXER (important! unless you have a REALLY strong arm!) beat cream cheese and granulated sugar for 20 minutes.
6. Add in confectioners sugar and beat just until smooth.Enjoy.
