EASY BUTTERFINGER® CAKE

Angel food cake, Butterfinger® candy bars and Cool Whip® are the well known favorites in this delightful (and easy) no-bake dessert. Looks great in a trifle bowl.

1 jar(s) ice cream carmel
1 can(s) sweetened condensed milk
1 cool whip
4 butterfinger regular size candy bars

Steps:

  • 1. Mix & bake the cake as instructed on the box ADDING 1 of the Crushed butterfinger bars into the mix before pouring batter in pan to cook in a 9 X 13 pan.
  • 2. After cake is cooked & cooled, poke holes all over the top of the cake. Pour caramel ice cream topping on cake, then pour the sweetened condensed milk on top of that. Crush the 3 remaining butterfinger candy bars and sprinkle 1/2 of the crushed candy on top of the sweetened condensed milk layer that's on top of the cake.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients: Using fresh and high-quality ingredients will greatly enhance the flavor and texture of your Butterfinger cake.
  • Properly measure your ingredients: Baking is a precise science, so it's important to measure your ingredients accurately. Use a kitchen scale for the best results.
  • Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy: This will help to incorporate air into the batter, resulting in a lighter and more tender cake.
  • Add the eggs one at a time: Gradually adding the eggs will help to prevent the batter from curdling.
  • Do not overmix the batter: Overmixing can result in a tough and dense cake. Mix just until the ingredients are well combined.
  • Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This is the best way to ensure that the cake is cooked through.
  • Let the cake cool completely before frosting: This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.
