Ranking #1 in nearly every "favorite cookie" poll, the chocolate chip cookie is pretty much the go-to cookie of choice for both kids and grownups alike.
What's the secret ingredient in these cakes? Pudding mix. It not only adds flavor but it gives the cake a richer, creamier texture. No one will know your secret ingredient!

These are awesome! But, I didn't want to mess with melting chocolate (I always manage to burn it) so immediately after removing from the oven I sprinkled the coconut layer with a mixture of semi-sweet and dark chocolate chips. They melted quickly and I spread with a knife.
