- Beat pudding mix and milk in large bowl with whisk 2 min. Add peanut butter; beat until well blended. Stir in COOL WHIP. Cut cake horizontally in half; place flat layer on plate. Frost with half the pudding mixture; cover with remaining cake half, rounded-side up. Spoon remaining pudding mixture into resealable plastic bag; refrigerate with cake until ready to use.
