KIT KAT CAKE RECIPE FROM SCRATCH | M&M'S CAKE | CANDY CAKE (EGGLESS)

Steps:

• FOR THE CHOCOLATE CAKE BASE
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Prepare two 8 inches round cake pans, by greasing it with oil and lining the bottom of the pan with pre-cut parchment paper. Trace the shape of the pan by placing it over the parchment paper, then trim and place the reverse side of the paper on to the bottom of the pan.
• Sieve the flour, baking soda, cocoa powder and coffee powder in a mixing bowl. Add sugar and salt and whisk to combine everything well.
• Make 3 depressions in the dry ingredients - two small, one larger.
• Pour vinegar in one depression, vanilla in the other and vegetable oil in larger depression.
• Pour water over all, mix well just until combined and no more flour pockets are visible. The batter may have a few lumps and that is okay, do not over mix.
• Divide the batter equally between the two cake pans, tap the pans on the countertop to remove air bubbles. Bake on the middle rack for about 35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Transfer to a wire rack, let it cool completely before frosting. You can cover the cake and refrigerate it until you are ready to frost it. {Note: Oven baking times may vary, check your cake to avoid over baking it, but check no sooner than 30 minutes}.

KIT KAT CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325°F. Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans and line a cupcake pan with 6 liners (you're going to have 6 cupcakes to munch on along with your cake!)
• In a large bowl, whisk together the cake mix, flour, sugar and salt. Add the remaining ingredients and beat with a hand mixer for 2 minutes, or until well blended.
• Scoop the batter into 6 cupcake liners 3/4-full. Divide the remaining batter between the two prepared round pans. Bake the cupcakes for about 25 minutes, and bake the cake rounds 35 to 40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let the cake cool in the pans for 20 minutes, then remove the cake layers to a wire rack to cool completely.
• When the cake is cool, you're ready to assemble. Place one layer on a serving plate, and tuck strips of waxed paper underneath the sides of the cake.
• In a large bowl, beat butter and cream cheese at medium speed with an electric mixer until creamy. Gradually add powdered sugar, beating at low speed until blended. Increase speed to medium, and slowly add milk and vanilla, beating until smooth. Microwave chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl at MEDIUM 1 1/2 to 2 minutes or until melted and smooth, stirring at 30 second intervals. Gradually add melted chocolate to mixture; beat until blended and smooth.
• Frost the 1st cake layer. Set the 2nd layer on top of the first. Frost the 2nd layer and along the sides of the cake too. Stick Kit Kat's to the sides of the cake, leaving a very small space in between each Kit Kat (1/4-inch). Wrap a bow around the cake, securing the Kit Kat's. Fill the top of the cake with M&M's. Pull out the strips of waxed paper and discard. Use any extra frosting to frost your 6 extra cupcakes.
• If you refrigerate the cake for a couple of hours or so, it will be much easier to cut and serve. Of course, you'll need to remove the bow just before serving.

KIT KAT CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Line bottom of 9-inch round cake pan with parchment or wax paper. Press cookie dough in bottom to 1/2 inch thickness. Bake approximately 18 minutes or until lightly brown. Cool completely.
• In a large bowl, put 1 1/2 cups chocolate chips and 5 cups whipping cream. Microwave on HIGH for 4 - 5 minutes until chocolate is soft. Remove and stir well until chocolate and cream are mixed well. Cover with plastic wrap and chill overnight.
• Melt remaining chocolate chips with butter and stir until smooth.
• Place large cookie in center of 10-inch springform pan. Cut candy bars long ways and dip on end in chocolate mixture. Place vertically between cookie and sides of pan. Continue until all candy bar pieces are used.
• Chill 20 minutes.
• Whip cream and chocolate mixture until stiff.
• Chop remaining candy bars into chunks. Take cookie shell and place one-third of mousse on bottom. Sprinkle chunks on top. Repeat layers, ending with mousse. Chill in freezer overnight.
• Top with whipped cream and chunks of candy bar.
• Return to freezer.
• When ready to serve, remove from freezer and let stand in refrigerator 30 minutes before slicing.

AUTUMN KIT KAT LAYER CAKE (W/ REESES PIECES)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350
• To make the cake:.
• In a large bowl, combine the Duncan Hine's cake mix, milk, eggs, canola oil and chocolate pudding mix . Mix until everything is moist and then mix on Medium speed for 2 minutes.
• Divide cake mix evenly between two 9" greased round cake pans.
• Bake for 28-31 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool in pans for 5 minutes then remove cakes and cool completely on wire rack.
• To make the icing:
• Spoon vanilla icing into a bowl and add peanut butter. Mix with hand mixer until combined. Add more peanut butter, to taste.
• To assemble the cake:.
• Place one cake on whatever plate you are using to serve it and icing like normal, adding some extra on the top.
• Place the second cake on top of the first cake. Icing the second cake to create a layer cake. It does not have to look pretty -- you won't see it anyway.
• Break Kit Kats in half so that 2 bars are still stuck together. You will use between 10 and 12 (4 packs) of Kit Kats depending on the size of your cake.
• Spread some icing on the back of each Kit Kat section and begin placing them around the cake (vertically and right next to each other). It will begin to resemble a fence going around the cake.
• When you've gone the whole way around, tie the Autumn themed ribbon around the cake to keep the Kit Kats in place.
• Fill the top of the cake with Reese's Pieces (you will probably use a whole bag).
• Cover and refrigerate or serve immediately.
• You can also use different cake and icing combinations or top it with seasonal or regular M&M's to fit any occasion. Coordinate ribbon to match!

EASTER KIT KAT CAKE RECIPE - (4.4/5)

Steps:

• 1. Bake your favorite cake recipe for a two-layer, 8" or 9" cake. (For this cake, I used Duncan Hines yellow cake mix.) Make sure to even out your layers so there's some room left at the top for your coconut. 2. Frost with your favorite icing. (For this cake, I used Duncan Hines chocolate icing.) 3. Press the Kit Kat bars around the cake gently. 4. Place the coconut in a zippered plastic bag. Add drops of green coloring (I used 4) and close the bag. Shake until the color blends evenly. Add more coloring if necessary. 5. Sprinkle the coconut over the top of the cake. Add the mini eggs. 6. Tie a ribbon around the Kit Kat bars.
