This cake should be introduced with the Star Wars theme song.
You know.
da da da duh da da duh da da

Okay so it's difficult to type a theme song.
But you get it ~ this recipe is Epic.

Like Han Solo battling Storm Troopers.... To. Die For.
Alright enough with the Star Wars analogies. Here are the goods:
1 pkg Chocolate Cake Mix {prepared and baked in two 8" rounds}
1 litre Whipping Cream
1/3 cup Cocoa
3/4 cup White Sugar
4 Skor Bars all crushed up
The recipe is from my sister-in-law via my mother-in-law {I have fab in-laws, I know!}
Allow your two cake rounds to cool before cutting them each in half.
Mix whipping cream, sugar and cocoa. Whip ingredients until they are well incorporated. Do not over whip ~ we don't want to butter our cake.
Fold in crushed Skor bars {reserve 1/2 bar}.
Now build your cake of epic proportions. Layer the cake with the whipping cream mixture. Cover entire cake with whipping cream. Sprinkle reserved Skor bar on top. Try {and fail} not to lick the spoon, spatula, mixer and bowl. Hum theme song.
da da da dah da da dah da da
du du du duh du du duh du du
du du du duh du du duh du du
Take a step back to admire your masterpiece.
Is this how Darth Vader felt after finally completing the Death Star?

Now, now, no licking the computer screen. You'll just have to go and make your own!
A five ingredient cake that looks this good? Priceless!
Now back to our theme song:
Who me? A lone woman surrounded by a house full of boys?
How'd you know?
Thanks for visiting. Enjoy!

My mom makes a cake like this but without the skor. Then she mixes Jiffy fudge frosting mix with corn syrup and pours it over the top. It's divine! I am going to add skor next time I make it! I LOVE Skor!

ReplyDeleteI also enjoyed all the Star Wars humor you threw in! :0)
I am gaining weight just looking at your pictures LOLOL. This looks so yummy...along with the white trash bars. I've died and gone to toffee heaven lol.
ReplyDeleteHave you actually made successful icing following that recipe? I followed yours to a T and it did not making icing, it made soup. I had to use an entire bag of icing sugar to make it somewhat resemble real icing and even now it hardly does. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteThis cake does not use icing or frosting. The recipe makes a chocolate whipping cream of epic proportions. Use the whipping cream to layer and cover the cake. Perhaps you did not mix the cream for long enough? It should thicken and form peaks. Hope it works for you next time! xo
