EASY BUTTERFINGER® CAKE

Steps:

Repeat layers with remaining cake, whipped topping mixture, and crushed candy. Cover dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving.

BUTTERFINGER DESSERT RECIPE - (4.2/5)

Steps:

• Spray a 9 x 13-inch pan with cooking spray. Cut the angel food cake into 1-inch cubes and arrange half of them on the bottom of the pan. In large bowl, add the pudding mix with skim milk. Whisk until mixture starts to thicken and fold in both containers of cool whip. Pour half the "fluff" mixture over the cubed angel food cake in pan. Place the Butterfingers candy bars in a zip-loc bag and roll them with a rolling pin until crushed. Sprinkle half of the crushed Butterfingers on top of the "fluff" mixture. Repeat with rest of cake, fluff and candy. Cover and refrigerate for at least an hour before serving, or overnight. Enjoy!

BUTTERFINGER ANGEL FOOD DESSERT RECIPE - (3.9/5)

Steps:

• Bake cake in a tube pan according to package directions and cool completely. Split in half. Half will be used for each layer. Mix softened butter with powdered sugar. Blend in yolks. Add whipped topping. Tear one half of angel food cake into bite sized pieces and layer in the bottom of a 9x13 cake pan. Spread half the powdered sugar mixture over the cake pieces. Top with half or slightly less than half of the chopped Butterfingers (I like more candy for the top layer to look extra yummy). Repeat with cake pieces, then remaining frosting, then candy bits. Chill thoroughly before serving. Store in refrigerator.

FROSTED ANGEL FOOD CAKE

Steps:

• For the angel food cake: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Combine the cake flour and salt in a medium bowl and sift together 5 times. Set aside.
• In a large bowl, with an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, beat the egg whites until frothy (lots of bubbles but still liquid and loose). Add the cream of tartar and beat on high until stiff, 4 to 5 minutes. With the mixer on medium low, slowly sprinkle in the sifted granulated sugar. Fold in the sifted flour mixture gently until it's all combined. Sprinkle the vanilla into the bowl and fold gently.
• Spoon the batter into an angel food or tube pan (preferably with cooling legs)--make sure there's no grease or butter in there! Smooth the top and bake until a wooden skewer stuck all the way to the bottom comes out clean, 35 to 45 minutes. (Don't open the oven while it's baking!)
• Carefully remove the cake from the oven and immediately invert it onto its cooling legs (see Cook's Note). Let the cake cool completely while upside-down.
• For the frosting: Beat the powdered sugar, butter and cream in a large bowl with an electric mixer until very light and fluffy. Add a few drops of yellow food coloring as desired.
• Carefully remove the cake from the pan and transfer it to a cake plate upside-down, so that the end that was stuck to the bottom of the pan is now facing up. Frost the cake all over.

ANGEL FOOD CAKE WITH BROWN SUGAR CRUMBS AND STRAWBERRIES

Steps:

• For the angel food cake: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease and flour 6 mini Bundt pans.
• Sift the confectioners' sugar, cake flour and salt onto a sheet of parchment paper. Sift again.
• Beat the egg whites in a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium speed until frothy. Add the cream of tartar and beat until soft peaks form, about 5 minutes. Gradually beat in the granulated sugar, about 1 tablespoon at a time. Increase the speed to medium-high and continue beating until stiff, shiny peaks form, 12 to 15 minutes. Add the vanilla and beat a few seconds to combine.
• Sprinkle one-quarter of the flour mixture over the egg white mixture and gently fold with a rubber spatula. Fold in the remaining flour mixture in 3 additions. Transfer the batter to the prepared Bundt pans.
• Bake until the cakes feel springy and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 40 to 50 minutes. Invert the pans onto a funnel or the neck of a bottle and let cool completely. Loosen the edges of the cakes with a small knife, tap the sides of the pans against the counter, and unmold.
• For the strawberry sauce: Add the strawberries, sugar and lemon juice to a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring, until the strawberries have broken down and the mixture is soupy, about 15 minutes. Transfer to a blender and pulse until smooth. Strain back into the pot. Bring to a boil and stir in the cornstarch, making sure to avoid lumps. Remove from the heat and stir in the butter. Allow to cool, then transfer to a squeeze bottle.
• For the brown sugar-creme fraiche whipped cream: Whip the cream until firm peaks form using a whisk or electric mixer. Fold in the creme fraiche and brown sugar.
• For the crumbs: Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment.
• Combine the flour, granulated sugar, light brown sugar, baking powder and salt in a medium bowl. Add the oil and vanilla. Using your hands, mix until no dry spots remain and large clumps form when mixture is pressed together. Break up the mixture into clusters (some small, some large) and spread onto the prepared baking sheet.
• Bake, stirring occasionally, until the crumble is light golden brown and crunchy, 10 to 12 minutes. (It will get crunchier as it cools.) Let cool completely.
• Place the cakes on serving plates. Top with strawberry sauce, whipped cream and crumbs.

BUTTERFINGER™ LUSH

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375°F. Make and bake cookies as directed on pouch. Cool completely, at least 30 minutes.
• In food processor, process half of the cookies to coarse crumbs. Remove to medium bowl. Continue to process second half of remaining cookies to coarse crumbs; add to bowl. Stir in melted butter until well blended. In ungreased 13x9-inch (3-quart) glass baking dish, press cookie crumb mixture firmly in bottom. Set aside.
• In medium bowl, beat cream cheese, peanut butter and powdered sugar with electric mixer on medium speed until well blended, scraping down sides of bowl frequently. Beat in 2 cups of the whipped topping. Spread over cookie crust.
• In another medium bowl, beat dry pudding mix and milk with whisk about 2 minutes or until thick. Spread over cream cheese mixture. Spread remaining whipped topping over top of pudding layer. Cover and refrigerate 4 hours.
• When ready to serve, sprinkle chopped candy bars on top. Cut into 6 rows by 4 rows. Cover and refrigerate any remaining dessert.

SCRUMPTIOUS BUTTERFINGER CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350F or as directed on cake mix box.
• Prepare cake batter according to box directions and bake. I use a 9x13x2 glass pan.
• Remove cake from oven when done and allow to slightly cool. While cake is still warm, take the handle of a wooden spoon and make holes across the top of the cake.
• Open the Eagle brand milk and drizzle it all over the cake allowing it to seep into the holes. Set cake aside to cool completely after completing this step.
• When cake has COMPLETELY cooled, spread the Cool-Whip all over the top. Use as much or as little as you choose.
• Next, crush the butterfinger candy bars and sprinkle them all over the top of the cake.
• Important Note: Cake MUST be refrigerated before serving due to Cool-Whip.
• Serve and smile as the rave reviews come your way!
