THREE MUSKETEER CHOCOLATE CAKE

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 325* for coated or dark pans 9 x 13 or 350* for glass or pans not coated. Spray or use butter to coat pan & sprinkle flour around pan. Get rid of any extra flour; set pan aside.
• 2. Mix cake mix according to box with the following ingredients: eggs, water, and oil. Once blended, add 1 box of chocolate pudding mix; blend until smooth. Bake in oven for 26-29 minutes according to box.
• 3. While that's baking, mix cream cheese (blends best at room temp), 1/2 cup milk, and 1 tsp vanilla until smooth. Then add one box of chocolate pudding mix and an additional 1/2 cup of milk; blending well.
• 4. Then lastly blend 1 whole tub of Cool Whip to the mix and refrigerate until needed for filling.
• 5. When the cake is cool, use a frosting spatula to slip around the outer edging of the cake to make sure it's not sticking to the pan. Then take a cookie sheet, place on top of cake, hold tightly together and flip quickly, set flat on table, tap the bottom of cake pan a few times, lift cake pan off the now upside down cake, take a cake knife or any long knife and cut evenly down the center splitting the cake into 2 sections. Once separated, flip and place the bottom half of the cake back in the pan or on a tray.
• 6. Remove chocolate filling from fridge and stir a few times to make it easier to spread on the bottom layer of the cake. Once all of the chocolate filling has been spooned on the bottom layer of the cake, smooth over to make it evenly across the entire cake. Then flip and place the top half of the cake back on the bottom.
• 7. Lastly, take the remaining 1/2 cup of milk and chocolate pudding mix and blend well. Now add the remaining 8 oz tub of Cool Whip and blend well.
• 8. Finally, frost the top layer of the cake. Ready to serve, Enjoy!
• 9. TIP: For a creamier topping make the pudding as the box tells you, then add an 8 oz tub of Cool Whip, blend well and add topping to cake.

3 MUSKETEERS BARS

Steps:

• In a large saucepan over medium heat, combine the sugar, corn syrup, water and salt. Heat, stirring, to boiling, then continue to cook using a candy thermometer to monitor the temperature.
• Beat the egg whites until they are stiff and form peaks. Don't use a plastic bowl for this.
• When the sugar solution comes to 270 degrees F, or the soft-crack stage, remove from the heat and pour the mixture in thin streams into the egg whites, blending completely with a mixer set on low speed. Continue to mix until the candy begins to harden to the consistency of dough. This may take as long as 20 minutes.
• At this point, add the semisweet chocolate chips. Remember that the candy must already be at the consistency of dough when you add the chocolate; the nougat will thicken no more after the chocolate is added.
• When the chocolate is thoroughly blended and the nougat has thickened, press it into a greased 9x9-inch pan.
• Refrigerate until firm, about 30 minutes. With a sharp knife, cut the candy in half down the middle of the pan. Then cut across into 7 segments to create a total of 14 bars.
• Melt the milk chocolate chips in the microwave for 2 minutes on half power, stirring halfway through the heating time. Melt completely, but be careful not to overheat. Resting a bar on a fork, dip each bar into the chocolate to coat completely and place on wax paper.
• Cool until firm at room temperature, 1 to 2 hours. Makes 14 candy bars.
