My family just loved this dessert. I certainly will make it again and again. So easy for a cake that is so delicious.

Excellent version, especially for people with limited time. I have a version that also calls for a can of sweetened condensed milk. This has quite a few less calories. David, you obviously don't have a time issue between work and children. Go back to your kitchen and leave us alone. Oh, by-the-way, not all Americans are fat!!!! That is an ignorant assumption. (I am not American)

Wonderful quick and easy when you need something on the fly. The people I "bake" for (btw David I'm a professional baker) love simple homecooked recipes. I make the chocolate cake and caramel sauce from scratch

I'm not American, but I love American style cooking. It is so easy and taste really good. I use to make everything from scratch, but now I make use of American assembling...lol I'm not entering any competitions, I just want my family to enjoy what I've made.

YOU'RE right, David, assembly would be a great category! I love assembly! Fast, easy, and delicious and this cake would be the perfect start to such a category.

Sounds like David is a bit angry. Perhaps if someone were to give him a piece--and I don't mean cake--he wouldn't be so cranky, and he wouldn't feel the need to deride us fat Americans and our cooking skills. Have a nice day, David!
