Sundaes BestWhen you're short on time, you can easily add some frosty fun to dinnertime by serving up a variety of toppings and sauces and letting family members concoct their own scrumptious sundaes. Or scoop up one of these sweet and simple suggestions and treat your family to a refreshing dessert: Drizzle chocolate sauce over a scoop of strawberry ice cream and top with sliced berries and kiwi. Dollop with whipped cream. Instead of the usual chocolate sauce, top vanilla ice cream with warmed orange marmalade and a few fresh berries. For a super chocolaty treat, place a scoop of chocolate or chocolate mint ice cream on a brownie and pour on the hot fudge sauce. Add a spoonful of whipped cream, sprinkle with peanuts and accent with a maraschino cherry or a chocolate kiss. Like s'mores? You'll love this! Dress up a scoop of ice cream with chocolate sauce, mini marshmallows, whipped cream and graham cracker crumbs. Give a tropical-flavored ice cream added appeal with canned mandarin oranges and pineapple chunks. Serve with gingersnaps.

it was very different and I couldn't believe it didn't have any flour in it

I wanted to like this cake more than I did. I took a cue from some other reviews and I toasted the graham cracker crumbs on a cookie sheet in a 350 degree oven for 10 min, stirring a few times. I mixed half a large Hershey bar and stirred it into the frosting that I used in between the layers. It did taste more like a s'more than some of the other reviewers said their cake did. I just didn't like the flavor of the cake overall. I won't be making it again

This recipe has become a staple for me. I tweaked it a little to make it work as a cupcake recipe. I added 1/2 cup of all-purpose flour to make the cupcakes rise properly. I also frosted it with chocolate frosting and topped it with mini-marshmallows and a square of chocolate. I made it for our Cub Scout Blue and Gold banquet and had several people ask for the recipe. I am not a huge fan of cake but I LOVE this one.

This is an excellent cake. Made it for my neice on her birthday. The icing is a lil tricky. A candy thermometer is needed without question. Next time I make this cake I'm just going to use marshmallow fluff for icing. Wouldn't change anything else though.

I was disappointed in this cake. The texture is odd and it didn't taste very good (and I LOVE s'mores). The icing was the best part, but given the time and effort required to make it, I won't be making it again.

This cake is very sweet. I put the fudge in center but is not needed. The cake layers are very thin. Next time I will bake in 8in.pans The thicker layers should cut down on sweetness a little. Good cake!

This cake is okay. The cake itself has an interesting taste and texture, but I think I was expecting something sweeter. My kids really liked it!

Condensed milk and evaporated milk are NOT the same. Sweetened condensed milk is also called condensed milk. Here is one of several sites that confirm that. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Condensed_milk

This cake is so pretty. My family loved it especially the sweet frosting.
