A decadent dessert featuring layers of moist chocolate cake, creamy pudding, whipped topping, and crunchy Butterfinger candy bars, perfect for celebrations.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 box chocolate cake mix
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 box instant vanilla pudding mix (3.4 oz)
  • 2 cups cold milk
  • 1 tub whipped topping (8 oz, thawed)
  • 4 Butterfinger candy bars (crushed)
  • Chocolate syrup (optional, for drizzling)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Prepare the chocolate cake mix according to the instructions on the box. Combine the cake mix, eggs, vegetable oil, and water in a large mixing bowl. Beat with an electric mixer on medium speed for 2 minutes until smooth.
  3. Pour the batter into a greased 9×13-inch baking dish, spreading it evenly. Tap the dish gently on the counter to get rid of any air bubbles.
  4. Bake the cake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let the cake cool completely before moving on to the next step.
  5. While the cake cools, prepare the pudding. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the vanilla pudding mix and cold milk until thickened, about 2 minutes. Place in the refrigerator to set.
  6. Once the cake is cool, use the end of a wooden spoon to poke holes all over the surface of the cake, spacing them evenly.
  7. Spread the pudding mixture over the cake, making sure it seeps into the holes. Smooth out the top with a spatula.
  8. Next, spread the whipped topping over the pudding layer. Be gentle to avoid mixing the layers.
  9. Sprinkle the crushed Butterfinger candy bars generously over the whipped topping.
  10. Drizzle chocolate syrup over the cake if desired.
  11. Cover the cake and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to let all the flavors meld together.

Notes

Use room temperature ingredients for better mixing. Crush Butterfinger bars evenly using a zip-top bag and rolling pin. Refrigerate the cake before serving to let the flavors meld together.
