Note
For a dairy-free version, ensure the pudding mix and cake mix are certified dairy-free, and consider using flax eggs instead of chicken eggs if strict vegan requirements apply, though traditional recipes use standard eggs.
Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
You can substitute Sprite for 7-Up if that is what you have on hand; the flavor difference is negligible.
For added texture, fold in 1/2 cup of crushed pineapple (drained) or toasted coconut flakes before baking.
