Chocolate Candy Bar Cake
Yield: 12 slices Prep Time: 40 minutes Cook Time: 25 minutes Total
Time: 1 hour 5 minutes
A simple chocolate cake with real candy bars in the frosting! The kids (and
your inner child) will love it.
Ingredients
For the cake:
. 1 box chocolate cake mix
. 1 3.4 ounce package instant vanilla pudding
. 3/4 cup vegetable oil
. 1 1/2 cups milk
. 3 eggs
For the frosting:
. 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese
. 1/2 cup granulated sugar
. 1 cup powdered sugar
. 1 8 ounce container whipped topping
. 4 candy bars, any variety or flavor, coarsely sliced
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Grease 2 9 inch cake pans (or 3 8 inch
pans). Set aside.
In the bowl of an electric mixer, beat all of the ingredients for the cake
together on low speed. Increase to medium speed and beat for 4 minutes,
scraping
the bowl as needed. Divide the batter evenly in the prepared pans and bake
for 23-27 minutes (for 9 inch pans) or until a toothpick inserted in the
center
comes out clean. Allow the cakes to cool for 10 minutes before running a
knife along the edges and flipping them out of the pans and onto a cooling
rack.
Meanwhile, beat together the cream cheese, sugar, and powdered sugar until
smooth. Fold in the whipped topping followed by the candy bars.
To frost the cake, place one layer on a flat surface. Spread the frosting
over the cake and along the edges. Place the second layer on top and spread
the
frosting on the top and sides, blending with the bottom layer. Place candy
bars pieces on top to decorate, either piled in the center or around the top
and sides. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
