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!
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.

The cake is very easy to make. I substituted whole wheat flour for the all-piurpost flour and dark chocolate chips for the semi-sweet. I tested it on my family and they loved it. I look forward to taking it to work for a co-workers birthday knowing it will be enjoyed.
