Chocolate Toffee Crunch Layer Cake Recipes

CHOCOLATE TOFFEE CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Coat two 9-inch round cake pans with cooking spray. At low speed beat mix, mayonnaise, eggs and 1 cup water 30 seconds. Increase speed to high; beat 2 minutes. Stir in chips.
• Divide batter between pans. Sprinkle 1/4 cup toffee in each pan. Lightly spread toffee into batter. Bake 30 minutes or until toothpick inserted into centers comes out clean. Cool on racks 20 minutes. Remove from pans; cool completely on racks.
• Transfer 1 cup frosting to pastry bag fitted with large star tip. Place 1 cake layer on serving plate; spread with 1 cup frosting. Top with remaining cake layer. Spread top and side with remaining frosting. Pipe lattice onto cake; garnish with toffee.
• Note: You can also bake in a 13x9-inch pan for 30-35 minutes instead of round pans. Use 1 can frosting.

CHOCOLATE AND TOFFEE LAYER CAKE

Steps:

• CAKE: Prepare cake mix as directed, adding 1 cup sour cream to batter before mixing.
• Pour into two round cake pans and bake as directed on box. Cool layers thoroughly.
• (For frosting: Place a mixing bowl and beater into the refrigerator ahead of time to better whip the cream.).
• Slice each cake layer in half horizontally. (I find this easier if I completely freeze the layers beforehand, then use a very sharp serrated knife!) You now have 4 cake layers. Set aside.
• FROSTING: Using your cold mixing bowl, blend together whipping cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla. (you can taste this mixture and decide if you want to add more sugar.).
• Beat at high speed for several minutes, until you achieve "Cool Whip" consistency. (Don't over beat; it will get too thick.).
• Gently fold in the toffee bits.
• Frost the cake! Mmmmm -- .

CHOCOLATE TOFFEE CRUNCH ICE CREAM CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Combine cake mix, eggs, butter, and water.
• Pour into a well greased 13x9 pan. Bake for 35-40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
• Allow cake to cool completely.
• When cake is fully cooled, using a serrated knife, cut cake in half lengthwise.
• Place the bottom half of the cake back in the pan. Top with the softened ice cream, and spread it evenly over the cake. Sprinkle the toffee chips in an even layer over the ice cream. Place the top layer of the cake on the toffee chips/ice cream. Spread the softened Cool Whip over the top of the cake.
• Freeze 2 or more hours before serving.

CHOCOLATE TOFFEE CAKE

• Combine the toffee bits, chips and brown sugar; set aside., In a large bowl, cream butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition (mixture will appear curdled). Beat in vanilla. Combine the flour, baking powder, salt and baking soda; add to the creamed mixture alternately with buttermilk, beating well after each addition., Pour a third of the batter into a greased and floured 10-in. fluted tube pan. Sprinkle with a third of the toffee mixture. Repeat layers twice. Bake at 350° for 55-65 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean., Cool for 10 minutes before removing from pan to wire rack to cool completely. For icing, in a small saucepan, melt butter. Stir in flour until smooth; gradually add evaporated milk and brown sugar. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 4-5 minutes or until thickened. Cool. Drizzle over cake.
