Kick Homemade Brownies Up A Notch With One Simple Addition

The trick to better brownies lies in one simple addition: cook and serve pudding. Add it directly to a box of chocolate cake mix for a fudgy, flavor-rich version of this dessert.

To start, prepare your pudding mix as per the packet instructions. Remove the mixture from the heat once it starts bubbling and pour into a bowl containing the chocolate cake mix.

If you're using instant pudding mix, simply make it as directed and fold in the dry chocolate cake mix until you have an evenly blended batter.

Then it's as simple as spreading the brownie batter into a greased baking tin (with any other preferred toppings) and popping it into the oven until cooked to your preference.
