Time 1h40m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup butter (softened + extra for Bundt pan)
2 cups sugar
4 eggs
8 1.55-ounce Hershey's Milk Chocolate Bars
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup buttermilk
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/8 teaspoons salt
1 cup chopped pecans

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325°F.
  • Grease and flour a Bundt pan.
  • Cream the butter and sugar. Add eggs, beating after each addition.
  • Melt the Hershey bars. Add a little melted chocolate to the egg mixture and beat. Continue to add chocolate and beat until it is all combined.
  • Add the buttermilk and flour alternately. Stir in the vanilla, salt, and pecans. (I dust my pecans with a little flour to help keep them suspended throughout the cake, rather than sinking to the bottom.)
  • Pour the batter into the prepared Bundt pan and bake for 90 minutes.

4 medium eggs
1/2 c sugar
1/2 c oil
1 tsp vanilla extract
FROSTING:
8 oz cream cheese, room temperature
16 oz powdered sugar
12 oz cool whip, thawed

Steps:

  • 1. CAKE: Do not use ingredients the box calls for... instead, mix together the cake mix, buttermilk, eggs, sugar, oil and vanilla. Now follow box directions as far as beating the batter & cooking time. Cool layers well before you frost the cake.
  • 2. FROSTING: Cream together the cream cheese and powdered sugar, using electric mixer, until smooth. Fold in the cool whip and hershey bar pieces. Frost between cooled layers, top and sides. Keep refrigerated.
  • 3. NOTE: I usually bake three 8" cake layers, although you can make three 9" layers. Great Tip: Another member, Barbara Pendley, suggested using chocolate shavings or curls on top. PHOTO: Here is a pic of MaAnn and I. We have been friends since high school. She's the blonde.

HERSHEY CANDY BAR CAKE RECIPE - (4/5)



Hershey Candy Bar Cake Recipe - (4/5) image

Provided by cecelia26_

Number Of Ingredients 13

CAKE:
1 box Duncan Hines Swiss Chocolate Cake Mix
1 small box instant vanilla pudding mix
2 cup buttermilk or 1 1/2 cups of milk
1 cup vegetable oil
3 large eggs
ICING
6 Hershey candy bars
12 ounce cool whip
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese
1 cup sugar
1 cup powdered sugar
1 cup finely chopped pecans

Steps:

  • CAKE: Mix all cake ingredients together and bake at 350°F in 3x9-inch pans greased & floured for 30 to 35 minutes. Grate 5 Hershey candy bars in small bowl. Grate or shave the other bar and set aside for garnishing. You can cut back on the bars if desired by not using as many in the frosting. Beat powdered sugar, sugar and cream cheese. Fold in grated candy bars and chopped nuts. Then fold in cool whip. Let cake layers cool before assembling. Put 1 layer frosting on the plate you are going to serve it on. You can be generous with the frosting between each layer. Then lay another layer on top of the first layer. Put the last layer on top. Proceed on to frost the top and sides. Sprinkle the candy bar on top. Refrigerate.

Tips:

  • Prepare the pan properly: Line the pan with parchment paper or grease it well to prevent the cake from sticking.
  • Do not overmix the batter: Overmixing can result in a tough and dense cake. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Use quality ingredients: Fresh ingredients will yield a better-tasting cake. Use high-quality cocoa powder and chocolate bars for the best results.
  • Do not overcook the cake: A toothpick inserted into the center of the cake should come out with just a few moist crumbs attached. Overcooked cake will be dry and crumbly.
  • Let the cake cool completely: Allow the cake to cool completely before frosting it. This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.

Conclusion:

Hershey's Bar Cake is a classic dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. With its rich chocolate flavor and moist texture, this cake is sure to be a hit. So next time you are looking for a simple and delicious dessert, give Hershey's Bar Cake a try.
