Ingredients

Units Scale

For the Cake:

  • 1 box yellow cake mix
  • 1 cup water
  • 1/2 cup oil
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 cup crushed Butterfinger candy bars
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips

For the Filling:

  • 1 cup caramel sauce
  • 1/2 cup crushed Butterfinger candy bars

For the Chocolate Drizzle Topping:

  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • Additional crushed Butterfinger candy bars for garnish

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat and Prepare the Pan

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
  • Grease and flour a Bundt pan to ensure easy release.

Step 2: Mix the Cake Batter

  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the yellow cake mix, water, oil, and eggs.
  • Beat until the batter is smooth and well combined.

Step 3: Add the Mix-Ins

  • Gently fold in the crushed Butterfinger candy bars and chocolate chips.

Step 4: Layer the Batter and Filling

  • Pour half of the batter into the prepared Bundt pan.
  • Drizzle caramel sauce over the batter and sprinkle with crushed Butterfinger pieces.

Step 5: Add the Final Layer

  • Pour the remaining cake batter over the filling and smooth the top with a spatula.

Step 6: Bake the Cake

  • Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 7: Cool and Remove from Pan

  • Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes.
  • Carefully invert the cake onto a serving plate and let it cool completely.

Step 8: Prepare the Chocolate Drizzle

  • Heat the heavy cream in a small saucepan or microwave until steaming.
  • Pour the hot cream over the chocolate chips in a bowl and let sit for 1-2 minutes.
  • Stir until smooth and glossy.

Step 9: Decorate with Drizzle and Garnish

  • Drizzle the chocolate glaze evenly over the cooled cake.
  • Sprinkle additional crushed Butterfinger candy bars on top for garnish.

Notes

  1. Caramel Placement: Avoid placing caramel sauce too close to the pan edges to prevent sticking.
  2. Butterfinger Pieces: Gently fold in the crushed candy bars to ensure even distribution without breaking them further.
  3. Cooling Tip: Ensure the cake is fully cooled before adding the chocolate drizzle for the best presentation.
