Categories     Dessert

Time 2h10m

Yield 1 cake

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 box chocolate cake, made according to instuctions for two 8 inch round cakes
1 container Cool Whip
1/2 cup chocolate syrup
6 Skor candy bars, crushed

  • Put more on top of that cake and on sides.
  • Sprinkle the rest of skor bar crumbs on top.
  • Put in freezer for about an hour, or until firm.

Tips

  • Use high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your cake. Use real butter, not margarine, and use good-quality chocolate and toffee.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the cake tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the cake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 30-35 minutes. Check the cake for doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center. If the toothpick comes out clean, the cake is done.
  • Let the cake cool completely before frosting it. This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.
  • Use a variety of toppings to decorate your cake. You can use chopped toffee, chocolate chips, nuts, or sprinkles. Get creative and have fun!
