Kraft Kitchens Tips

Size-Wise
Looking for something sweet? One serving of this Boston Cream Pie is sure to hit the spot when served with an cold glass of fat-free milk.
Note
Use a 2-layer cake mix to bake 2 (8- or 9-inch) round cake layers. Cool completely. Use 1 of the cake layers as directed. Wrap remaining cake layer tightly in plastic wrap, then in foil. Store in freezer up to 1 month.
How to Slice Cake Layer Evenly
Place cooled cake layer on serving plate. Make 2-inch horizontal cut around side of cake using long serrated knife. Then, cut all the way through cake layer to make 2 layers.
