• Pour batter into pan. Bake until top of cake is slightly crusty, begins to crack and tester inserted into center comes out with moist crumbs attached, about 45 minutes. Cool 5 minutes. Gently press down any raised edges of cake to even. Cool in pan. Invert cake onto platter. Peel off foil. Trim 1/2 inch off each edge of cake.

• Wash raspberries.
• Layer brownies, pudding, and raspberries in glass or plastic cups (remember the plastic cups I used to make Individual Seven Layer Dips? Those cups work perfect for this!).
• I was able to make 8 (8oz) servings, but it just depends how big your cups are and how many layers you put in each cup.
• *I suggest making these and eating them immediately, otherwise the brownies start to get really soft (I thought the soft brownies were yummy, but my husband preferred them to be more fresh and chewy).
• Recipe adapted from $5 Dinners.
