The "tried" that wasn't successful got eaten in short order. It was a delicious failure. But a failure nonetheless.
What happened is I poured half the cake batter in the bundt pan, then carefully spread the pudding over the batter, then poured the rest of the batter on top. When I took it out of the oven, it looked fine except for a little pudding bubbling out of the sides, but when I tried to remove the cake from the pan, it fell in half. I had two separate cakes: A top layer, then a bottom layer covered with pudding. (They did not separate in an aesthetically pleasing manner, and the bottom layer fell apart when I removed it from the pan, so trying a two-layer cake with pudding in between wasn't going to work.) However, the cake tasted very good, especially the part that baked next to the pudding. It was o so tender and yummy.
