CHOCOLATE-TOFFEE CRUNCH LAYER CAKE
This layered cake is pure chocolate confection. Betty Crocker™ Super Moist™ chocolate cake mix gets an extra chocolaty plus-up from the addition of chocolate pudding before baking. A from-scratch dangerously good dark chocolate buttercream frosting covers the three layers of cake. The special addition that takes this dessert to the next level? A toffee bits crunch that's sprinkled among the frosting in between the cake layers, and then piled atop the cake. For an extra-fun touch, we added small frosting stars piped around the edges of the top of the cake! It's a truly over-the-top chocolate dessert that makes a gorgeous centerpiece, and makes any chocolate-loving guest very happy.

To keep the plate clean while assembling this pretty layered dessert, cut two half circles of waxed paper to place under the bottom layer and remove them after frosting the cake and sprinkling on the toffee. -Pat Squire Alexandria, Virginia

CHOCOLATE AND TOFFEE LAYER CAKE
This beautiful cake is great for company, and so easy to put together. It's a fool-proof moist cake! I have made it 24 hours ahead of time and it's still great, but the toffee pieces didn't stay very crunchy. I must thank my friend Libby and her mom for this recipe. I have also used 2 whole cake mixes to make a very tall cake. (1 whole cake mix, prepared, fits into my 9-inch pan.) But I did not double all the frosting ingredients, and it didn't have quite enough flavor. I recommend for a large cake, doubling everything.

Steps:
- CAKE: Prepare cake mix as directed, adding 1 cup sour cream to batter before mixing.
- Pour into two round cake pans and bake as directed on box. Cool layers thoroughly.
- (For frosting: Place a mixing bowl and beater into the refrigerator ahead of time to better whip the cream.).
- Slice each cake layer in half horizontally. (I find this easier if I completely freeze the layers beforehand, then use a very sharp serrated knife!) You now have 4 cake layers. Set aside.
- FROSTING: Using your cold mixing bowl, blend together whipping cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla. (you can taste this mixture and decide if you want to add more sugar.).
- Beat at high speed for several minutes, until you achieve "Cool Whip" consistency. (Don't over beat; it will get too thick.).
- Gently fold in the toffee bits.
- Frost the cake! Mmmmm -- .
