Cake
12 fun-size candy bars
2 tablespoons milk
1 box (18.25 ounce size) white cake mix
2 cups water
1/3 cup vegetable oil
3 eggs
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
Frosting
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
2 1/2 cups confectioners' sugar, sifted
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
6 tablespoons butter, softened
3 tablespoons milk, PLUS"PLUS" means this ingredient in addition to the one on the next line, often with divided uses
2 teaspoons milk
directions
For Cake: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly butter and flour a 13-by 9-inch cake pan.
In a medium saucepan over medium-low heat, melt the candy bars with milk. Stir until the candy has melted. Cool 5 minutes.
In a large bowl using an electric mixer, blend cake mix, water, oil and eggs on low, scraping down sides of the bowl. Beat 2 minutes on high.
Stir 2/3 cup of cake batter and the flour into the cooled chocolate mixture and mix until thoroughly incorporated.
Pour the remaining white cake batter into the prepared pan. Spoon the chocolate mixture over the cake batter. Swirl the chocolate mixture into the cake batter with a knife.
Bake 28 to 32 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean. Completely cool the cake in the pan before frosting.
For Frosting: In a large bowl using electric mixer, cream together the cocoa, confectioners' sugar, vanilla and butter on high. Gradually add the milk and beat until the frosting is spreadable. Frost the top of the cake.

What's the secret ingredient in these cakes? Pudding mix. It not only adds flavor but it gives the cake a richer, creamier texture. No one will know your secret ingredient!
Beer makes batters better, meat more tender, and sauces more flavorful.

We didn't have many trick or treaters this year for some reason, so I used up our leftover fun-sizes to bake this cake. Delicious! I don't know why I did it since the kids still have their own Halloween candy to eat.

I have made this twice in less than a week - the first time I made it with yellow cake, snickers, and milky way. The second time I made it with kit hat, butterfingers, 3 musketeers, milky way. Be sure to crush up the kit hat and butterfingers before melting it. Everyone likes it.
