Easy Hershey Bar Cake Recipes

Steps:

• Mix first 5 ingredients and bake at 350 in 4 round cake pans.
• (I just used 2 cake pans twice. Who has four cake pans?) Bake according to cake mix directions.
• Mix frosting ingredients together and add 4 grated Hershey bars with almonds and ½ cup pecans.
• Ice between layers, top and sides.

Steps:

• 1. Combine cake mix, vanilla pudding, eggs, oil and water according to cake mix package instructions. Beat until smooth and pour into 2-8 inch pans greased and floured with cooking spray. Bake at 350 for 35 minutes. Remove and cool layers.
• 2. With a stand mixer important unless you have a really strong arm beat cream cheese and sugar for 20 minutes. Add in the confectioners sugar and beat just until smooth. Fold in whipped topping, chopped pecans and grated hershey bar.
• 3. Frost cooled cake and enjoy. So good. Even better the next day. Scant means just slightly short of a cup.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease and flour 3 (8 inch) pans.
• In a large bowl, combine cake mix, milk, eggs, oil and instant vanilla pudding mix. Beat on low speed until blended. Scrape bowl, and beat 4 minutes on medium speed. Pour batter into prepared pans.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Allow to cool.
• To make the frosting: In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese with the white sugar and confectioners' sugar until smooth. Fold in the whipped topping, pecans and chopped chocolate. Spread between layers and on top and sides of cake.

Steps:

• 1. CAKE: Do not use ingredients the box calls for... instead, mix together the cake mix, buttermilk, eggs, sugar, oil and vanilla. Now follow box directions as far as beating the batter & cooking time. Cool layers well before you frost the cake.
• 2. FROSTING: Cream together the cream cheese and powdered sugar, using electric mixer, until smooth. Fold in the cool whip and hershey bar pieces. Frost between cooled layers, top and sides. Keep refrigerated.
• 3. NOTE: I usually bake three 8" cake layers, although you can make three 9" layers. Great Tip: Another member, Barbara Pendley, suggested using chocolate shavings or curls on top. PHOTO: Here is a pic of MaAnn and I. We have been friends since high school. She's the blonde.

Steps:

• CAKE: Mix all cake ingredients together and bake at 350°F in 3x9-inch pans greased & floured for 30 to 35 minutes. Grate 5 Hershey candy bars in small bowl. Grate or shave the other bar and set aside for garnishing. You can cut back on the bars if desired by not using as many in the frosting. Beat powdered sugar, sugar and cream cheese. Fold in grated candy bars and chopped nuts. Then fold in cool whip. Let cake layers cool before assembling. Put 1 layer frosting on the plate you are going to serve it on. You can be generous with the frosting between each layer. Then lay another layer on top of the first layer. Put the last layer on top. Proceed on to frost the top and sides. Sprinkle the candy bar on top. Refrigerate.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour two 9 inch cake pans.
• Use the first set of ingredients to make the cake. In a medium bowl, stir together the sugar, flour, cocoa, baking soda, baking powder and salt. Add the eggs, milk, oil and vanilla, mix for 3 minutes with an electric mixer. Stir in the boiling water by hand. Pour evenly into the two prepared pans.
• Bake for 30 to 35 minutes in the preheated oven, until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes before removing from pans to cool completely.
• To make the frosting, use the second set of ingredients. Cream butter until light and fluffy. Stir in the cocoa and confectioners' sugar alternately with the milk and vanilla. Beat to a spreading consistency.
• Split the layers of cooled cake horizontally, cover the top of each layer with frosting, then stack them onto a serving plate. Frost the outside of the cake.

Steps:

• Preheat oven 350°F.
• Generously grease and flour pan 12 cup flute pan (I have found that when making a chocolate cake that COCOA works better than flour for dusting the pan).
• Prepare cake mix batter as directed on package with oil, water, and eggs.
• Remove 2 cups batter, stir in corn syrup and pecans.
• Place chocolate bar pieces and chocolate syrup in a small microwave safe bowl.
• Microwave on high 1 minute or until smooth when stirred.
• Blend into remaining plain batter; pour into prepared pan.
• Spoon Vanilla Nut batter evenly over top.
• Bake 40 to 45 minutes or until wooden pick comes out clean.
• Cool 15 minutes; remove from pan to wire rack.
• Cool completely.
• Glaze with Milk Chocolate Glaze, allowing to drip down sides.
• GLAZE: Place chocolate bar pieces and shortening into micro-safe bowl on high (about 45 seconds) until melted when stirred.
• Cool slightly, glaze cake.
