Okay, I cannot say this is the most decadent cake in the entire world. I’m still researching this phenomenon and I’ll get back to you.
One thing I can say is it’s pretty freaking decadent. Anything that has eleven Milky Way (Mars Bars, UK) in it has got to be decadent, but look at the other frickin’ ingredients. A cup of butter? Two of sugar? Four eggs? And that’s just in the cake. The frosting has more butter and a box and a half of powdered sugar.
I mean, jeez. Seriously? Awe…some!
My mom made this cake, and obviously I instantly fell in love. I wanted to have Milky Way cake babies and live the Milky Way cake way of life. Alas, it’s inanimate and food so I ate it and then it was gone.
Now, the last two times I made this cake, I tried to make it in round pans. This is because I like cakes to be pretty. But I learned the hard way that some cakes don’t wanna be pretty. They just wanna taste really…freaking…good. Therefore, I also failed two times. Sticky mess (I still ate it). So I cannot vouch for the pan. All I can say is, don’t get clever and try to make this in round pans. It won’t fit. Not in 8-inch or 10-inch. It just doesn’t fit (yes, this bears repeating, the bottom of my oven and the fact that every time we used it for the next week it smelled like burnt Milky Way cake tells me so). Do the rectangular thingie.
