I just made a chocolate cake, from a packet mix. I did not burn it. But it was disappointingly dry. Not sure what I should do with it.

@kerravonsen Dry cake > no cake!

@kerravonsen if it is still warm you can prick it and chug milk or cream or orange juice above it to rinse into the holes.

@kerravonsen Trifle, Tiramisu, and Tres Leches are all based on the idea of soaking a cake with some flavourful liquid so some sort of variation on that idea would probably work.

For a trifle I think either cherry or orange gelatin would work particularly well.

Tiramisu is already using cocoa powder and coffee so chocolate cake would probably fit right in.

Tres leches I could also see working with chocolate cake.

@thegiddystitcher I not sure that I agree with that...

@kerravonsen if in doubt, trifle , or cake pops / truffles https://www.cupcakeproject.com/cake-truffles/
