ingredients
1 1/2 pound pound cake
8 cups vanilla custard, either homemade or from mix
1 cup dark rum, COMBINED WITH
1/2 cup cherry brandy
2 cups milk
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa
2 tablespoons unbleached all-purpose flour
directions
Choose a deep 8-cup dish or bowl (such as a trifle bowl). Cut pound cake into 1/4 inch slices. Cover the bottom of the bowl with a layer of pound cake. Generously douse the cake pieces with the rum mixture and pour on a layer of custard. Repeat layers ending with a layer of custard on top.
In a medium-sized saucepan, combine the milk, sugar, cocoa and flour. Stirring with a wire whisk, cook over medium heat until the milk boils. Lower heat and cook 1-2 minutes.
Pour the hot chocolate over the last custard layer. Let cool 10 minutes, then cover the bowl and refrigerate several hours or overnight.

Ah, the unassuming envelope of onion soup mix. It's more than just for onion soup (or dip). It adds tremendous flavor (and convenience) in all these recipes.
