You're welcome!
I say that because you are going to be thanking me for years to come for sharing this awesome recipe. I know this because I have been thanking my sis, Amy, for about 10 years now.
She makes this cake with Skor bars on top, but I opted for Butterfinger bars since I couldn't find Skor bars at my grocery store a few years back.
Whether you opt for Skor or Butterfingers, this will be the best darn cake you ever tasted.
Here we go:
Butterfinger Cupcakes
1 yellow cake mix
1 small box of instant chocolate pudding
2 cups warm water
2 eggs
Mix together according to cake mix package. Pour into prepared 9 x 13 pan or cupcake papers in muffin tin. Bake at 350 degrees for 25-30 minutes. Cool completely. Note: The cake will be nice and fluffy when it comes out of the oven and then it tends to fall a little. Don't worry, the frosting will cover the top and it will be beautiful! I promise!
Frosting:
1 cube butter or margarine
1 cup powdered sugar
8 oz. Whipped Topping
2-3 Butterfinger candy bars
Melt butter and mix with powdered sugar. Fold in whipped topping. Spread on cooled cake or cupcakes. Crush Butterfngers and sprinkle over frosted cake. Keep cake in fridge.
Tip: I put the frosting in a large ziplock bag, cut off a corner and piped the frosting around the cupcake. I loved how it turned out and it was so easy!

ReplyDeleteFunny Story.........when I was pregnant with our first i was very emotional. any little thing would set me to crying. so on my way home from work one day i had to stop at the store to pick up a couple of small things. as i was looking for a line to wait in i started crying (this was back before self check out lanes) and by the time i got home from the store i was a rotten mess. my husband asked me what was wrong thinking it was something serious and i burst out "i only had 2 items to buy and all the lines were huge and i had to wait a long time to get buy them!!!" booo hooo booo hooo!!!!!! he started laughing (he really couldn't help it) and of course that made me cry more.
we still laugh about that today, especially since we are expecting #4. he'll ask every now and then how long the lines were and if i'm ok about it!
:)
thanks for the chance!!

Oh, these look so yummy! Funny story: I was a single teacher for awhile and I had several siblings come through my class. At some point I got married. One time (after I was married) one of the parents was talking to her son and used my maiden name. He said "Mom, that not her name now, that's her made up name!" Anyway, I thought it was cute! shondaet@gmail.com

what is 1 cube of butter? Is it 1 cup? Thanks for clarifying....
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry! I grew up saying cube for one stick of butter. It is a 1/2 cup. :)
