Love buffalo wings? Get that same hot, zippy flavor in everything from deviled eggs to enchiladas. And of course: wings.
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!

This recipe was the best I have tasted. Very dense but moist cake and flavorful. The cream cheese frosting is just right. I omitted the nuts in the cake and instead ground up walnuts and put them up the sides of the cake for presentation. I made this cake for a birthday and adjusted the recipe to make enough for 2 12 inch round pans. What a presentation and a huge hit at the party. Didn't last long!
