I made this recipe as cupcakes for my 4 your old daughters birthday party, they were a huge hit with the kids and the parents. I iced the individual cupcakes and then put one chocolate square on each one. The only change I made was I added chocolate pudding mix instead of vanilla. They were delicious!

HEAVEN SENT! I've had a lot of Chocolate cake in my Days but this one, no pun intended, Really does Take The Cake"! My Baby made it for me for Mother's Day and she sure did make my day! No matter how you make it...this one is a Keeper, just like my Daughter!

This is a wonderfully moist cake and is not too sweet. I made it in two 9-inch pans and needed to bake it about 38 minutes total. Everyone enjoyed it!

This was VERY good. Two out of my three kids said that they thought it should be thier birthday cake next year! My husband loved it too. I did not add the nuts because of a nut allergy but it was still wonderful and the nuts weren't missed.I used two 9 inch pans.

What a great cake! I made it with Heath bar pieces that come in a bag found in the baking aisle. It received wonderful reviews by all..next time I may try a different type of chocolate candy. This will be added to my baking favorites! Enjoy..

Huge hit--even w/ non-chocolate fans. Used health bar bits stirred into frosting, added nuts to middle & top layer.

I can not say enough about this cake,its so moist,so scrumptous,dang it has ruined my starting my New Year's Day diet till next week,its been like 4 days since I made this cake and its still super moist.Anyhows,I made the cake exactly like written but used cheesecake pudding mix,(I really dont think it matters what pudding mix you use because you cant taste it but its the key to the moistness of the cake)I didnt use whip cream topping I made heavy cream with vanilla and powder sugar mix instead and for my candy bar I used snickers.Dang that snickers is the bomb.The perfect amount of nuts and carmel in the cake man alive I cant say enough.Since I used the snickers I didnt put the pecans in my whip cream mix.I think if you have too much nuts it would just enpower the cake,and I love nuts.Sooooooooooo please please try this cake,it will change the way you make cakes from now on.Now I will put pudding mix in all my cake mixes.Thank you Nancy,a great recipe to keep for life.Koodols to you!!!!!

This recipe was so good. I used three 9 inch cake pans, and use dove milk choc. For the pudding I used cheesecake pudding. I love cake but hate frosting, but this cake was different from any frosting I have ever had. Not to heavy like normal frostings, but not so light like whipped topping. Perfect.

This cake was excellent! I made it for my birthday party and my friends couldn't get enough of it. It was a very easy recipie to follow too. I added 4 butterfinger bars crunched up to the cream cheese filling and sprinkled two more crunched up on top. Some people might think thats to sweet, but i'm just a crazy teenager who loves candy so... I thought it was amazing.

This cake is excellent. Everyone raved and it's presentation is WOW. I did not mix the pecans and candy bar with the frosting. Instead of Chocolate bars, I used Heath bars. I sprinkled the nuts/candy on top of the frosting between the layers. On top, I built up the sides with the frosting around the perimeter and put the remainder of nuts/candy inside that perimeter on top. I used 9" pans instead of 8" This will be a recipe I will use often. The frosting is wonderful and not so sweet.....and not the greasy feel of most frostings.

From now on when I make any cake, this one or a different one... my cake will always be made the way this one is made... It is so moist, it's incredible! The frosting was a hit too!!! It doesn't matter what frosting you use with this cake, you won't go wrong!

I made this for my son's birthday party. I used Heath bars and omitted the pecans dt some nut allergies. It was great. I actually thought it was a little too sweet, but every other person at the party loved it. I had to copy the recipe and give it out to everyone.

This was a very good cake. It turned out moist. I read some of the reviews listed and I added a little less than 3/4 cup of powdered sugar and I only used 8 0z whipped topping and the frosting turned out great. It was delicious! I would definetly make it again.
