Ingredients
-
1 box (15.25 oz) chocolate cake mix (plus ingredients listed on box)
-
1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
-
1 jar (12 oz) caramel sauce
-
1 tub (8 oz) whipped topping, thawed
-
4 Butterfinger candy bars, crushed (or about 1 1/2 cups)
Instructions
-
Bake the cake: Prepare and bake the chocolate cake according to the package directions in a 9×13-inch pan.
-
Poke holes: Once the cake is baked, remove from the oven and use the handle of a wooden spoon to poke holes all over the top (while the cake is still warm).
-
Add fillings: Pour the sweetened condensed milk evenly over the cake, allowing it to soak into the holes. Then drizzle caramel sauce over the top as well.
-
Cool and chill: Let the cake cool completely, then refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
-
Top and serve: Spread whipped topping over the cooled cake. Sprinkle crushed Butterfinger bars evenly on top.
-
Slice and enjoy! Serve chilled and store any leftovers in the refrigerator.
Notes
-
For extra chocolate flavor, use chocolate fudge cake mix or add chocolate chips.
-
Try freezing Butterfingers before crushing to make it easier.
-
This cake is even better the next day after the flavors meld together.
