It turned out awesome, Esther. VERY good.

I did cook it just a little bit. Is that what I was supposed to do?

The other thing I found was that I had about twice as much of the syrup stuff as the cake could absorb. So next time, I will either make the cake in a regular cake pan and then pour all the syrup over it, or else, if I make it in a bundt cake pan again, I will make 1/2 as much syrup.

No need to cook.

I just posted another recipe from my SIL, she is the one that gave me the other recipe. It sounds wonderful as well.

Mix German Chocolate cake mix according to directions - pour over mixture.

Cream together:
1 8 oz. cream cheese, room temperature
1 box powdered sugar
1/4 cup evaporate milk
1 stick butter, melted
drizzle over cake mix

Bake 40-45 minutes. Cake mix will work its way over the cream cheese mixture so that it’s in the middle. Turn upside down when you serve.
Just put this cake in the oven for a birthday party in my dept. tomorrow - - it seems soooooo good!
