Other Yummy Cakes to Try

Chocolate Cherry Dump Cake

This butterfinger poke cake is a moist yellow cake  filled with rich caramel. Then the whole thing is topped off with light whipped topping. I really like this because it is not as heavy as frosting. (Although I do love frosting, my family often complains it is “too” sweet).

Too sweet is as logical to me as:

a. A cookie with too many chocolate chips

b. Nachos with too much cheese

c. Popcorn with too much butter

Butterfinger Poke Cake Tips:

1. This cake would also be tasty with chocolate or marble cake mix.
2. If you forget to thaw your Cool Whip try floating it in a bowl of warm water. Do not microwave ,or it may separate.
3. Feel free to use your favorite candy bar. I bet this would also be awesome with Snickers or Twix! I’m trying that next time!

Butterfinger Poke Cake Trivia Tidbits

1. In an early marketing campaign, Nestle dropped Butterfinger candy bars from airplanes. Chocolate falling from the sky? Sounds like a dream come true!
2. Remember the “end of the world” in 2012 when the Mayan calendar ended? Butterfinger hopped on board ,and cut a working QR crop circle into a Kansas field.
