Chocolate Crazy Cake image

This is a cake that my grandmother used to make for birthdays and special events. I always would request it for my birthday because I like the pudding topping better then frosting. The cake is very moist and a bit more dense then regular cakes. I am going to write it down the same way that she had it written down before she passed away :) The recipe is for a 9x13 cake
