This sounds very similar to cupcakes I make that everyone loves. Scratch cake and drop large spoonfulls of the filling in the middle, bake. No frosting. Some like these warm but I love them cold because of having the filling cold. YUMMMMMM

I made this tonight and was a little disappointed. The taste was fine (hence the 3 stars). But, since I added a box of pudding, block of cream cheese, 5 eggs, chocolate chips, sugar, etc etc... I expected it to taste more than just a normal devils food cake (from a mix). But it didn't. It just tastes like normal cake. Which is GOOD, because I like cake. But I could have made it much faster and more cheaply by just making it per the directions on the box. I frosted with white frosting and topped with mini semi sweet chips.

Made this last night for a co-workers b-day. Cake mix was very thick almost like a brownie mix? I took it out of the oven after 40 minutes. Good thing I did. A few more minutes and it would have burned. The edges where overcooked and and the cream cheese layer did not distribute throughout, instead it was just a thin layer on top. Very dry overall. Very disappointed. The picture looks so yummy.
