29.0. "CAKE: Boston Cream Pie" by MUNCSS::BRECHT () Thu Sep 06 1984 17:24

Does anyone have a scratch!!! recipe for  Boston Cream Pie?
Over here in Germany, they don't have "Betty Crocker" or
anything of the like, but I'm just dying for a piece.

Many Thanks

THIS ISN'T REALLY BOSTON CREAM PIE BUT IT PASSES FOR ONE IN OUR HOUSE.  
I ALWAYS MAKE IT FOR MY HUBBY ON HIS BIRTHDAY.

MAKE A STANDARD CHOCOLATE CAKE IN TWO LAYERS.
DIVIDE THE TWO LAYERS IN TWO HORIZONTALY WITH DENTAL FLOSS OR THREAD
(FLOSS WORKS BETTER). SPREAD CUSTARD OR VANILLA PUDDING BETWEEN THE SPLIT
LAYERS.  THEN FROST THE TOP AND BETWEEN THE LAYERS. VOILA!

Chocolate cake for a Boston Cream Pie?

I was going to suggest a simuliar solution - but the basic description 
is:

Two thin White cakes (9" dia)
vanilla pudding in between
cover with choclate sauce

Chocolate cake, humpf!  That is almost as bad as the 'Boston Cream Pie Bunt 
Cake' someone told me about last week ...

re .-1: No, real Boston Cream Pie doesn't call for white cake, but yellow
cake. I'm talking about the kind where the yellow color comes from eggs, not
FD&C Yellow #39. Vanilla custard goes between, and chocolate sauce is
drizzled on top.
