Ingredients
- 8 Milky Way candy bars (1.84 ounces each)
- ½ cup butter
- 2 cups sugar
- ½ cup butter softened
- 4 eggs
- ½ tsp baking soda
- ¼ tsp salt
- 1 ¼ cups buttermilk
- 2 ½ cups flour
- 1 tsp vanilla
FROSTING
- 2 cups sugar
- 1 cup evaporated milk
- 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup marshmallow creme
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°.
- Melt candy bars and 1/2 cup butter in a saucepan over low heat, stirring frequently. Once completely melted, remove from heat and set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to cream the sugar and 1/2 cup of softened butter until light and fluffy. Add eggs, mix well.
- Add the salt and baking soda to the buttermilk and then add to the butter/sugar mixture. Add the flour and mix until well combined. Add the melted candy bars and vanilla and then pour into a well greased bundt pan and bake for 65 minutes.
- Make sure that the center is done and then cool the cake for 10-15 minutes before inverting onto a wire rack to cool completely.
- To make the frosting, combine the sugar and evaporated milk in a saucepan over medium heat. Cook to soft-ball stage (234-240 degrees) and then remove from heat. Add chocolate chips and stir until melted. Blend in marshmallow creme. Spread over the cake.
- Top with additional chopped Milky Way candy bars if desired.
