Original Recipe Yield 1 - 9x13 inch cake
 

Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 cup white sugar
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar
  • 6 tablespoons butter, softened
  • 1 cup milk
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 5 (1.4 ounce) bars chocolate covered toffee bars, chopped
  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 cup chopped, unsalted dry-roasted peanuts

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch pan. Crush toffee bars into small bits and set aside.

Add milk, baking powder, vanilla, egg, and 1/2 cup of the crushed toffee bars; beat at low speed until well-mixed. Increase speed to medium, and beat for 1 minute. Spread batter evenly in 9x13 inch pan.
  3. To make the topping: In a small bowl, mix nuts, remaining chopped toffee bars, and reserved 1/2 cup crumb mixture. Sprinkle mixture evenly over batter in pan.
  4. Bake for 30 minutes, or until it tests done. Cool cake completely in pan on rack. Make about 2 1/2 hours before serving, or early the in day.
