PAULA DEEN'S BUTTERFINGER CAKE



Paula Deen's Butterfinger Cake image

This is a fabulous, easy to make recipe I found in the "Cooking with Paula Deen" magazine - a sure winner for all those who love chocolate and butterfingers! The only thing I do differently with all my cake mixes is to use buttermilk in place of the water.

Provided by Butterfinger

Categories     Bakery Goods

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

nonstick cooking spray, for greasing
15 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 ice cube
2 ½ cups cake flour
1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon kosher salt
1 ½ cups granulated sugar
3 large eggs, room temperature
1 teaspoon vanilla bean paste
¾ cup full fat greek yogurt
½ cup Butterfinger Bits or crushed Butterfinger bars
1 tablespoon reserved browned butter, melted
1 cup powdered sugar
½ teaspoon vanilla bean paste
1 tablespoon whole milk
¼ cup Butterfinger Bits or crushed Butterfinger bars

Steps:

  • Make the cake: Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease a 10- to 15-cup Bundt pan with nonstick spray. Prepare an ice bath in a large bowl.
  • Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring constantly, until the milk solids begin to turn golden brown. Remove the pot from the heat and continue stirring until the butter has cooled slightly. Transfer to a large bowl, reserving 1 tablespoon of the browned butter in a separate small bowl for the glaze.
  • Add the ice cube to the larger bowl of browned butter. Set in the ice bath (making sure no water gets into the butter) and whisk for about 5 minutes, until cooled, milky in color, and thickened, but not completely solid.
  • In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  • Add sugar to the bowl with the browned butter and beat with an electric hand mixer on medium speed for 1-2 minutes, or until the mixture is creamy. Add the eggs, 1 at a time, beating until incorporated before adding the next. Add the vanilla bean paste and Greek yogurt, and beat until just combined.
  • Add the dry ingredients and mix on low speed until just combined.
  • Fold in the Butterfinger Bits or crushed Butterfinger bars with a rubber spatula until incorporated.
  • Transfer the batter to the prepared pan, smoothing the top.
  • Bake the cake for about 45 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes.
  • While the cake cools, make the glaze: If needed, melt the reserved tablespoon of brown butter. Transfer to a medium bowl with the powdered sugar, vanilla bean paste, and milk, and whisk until smooth.
  • Turn the cake out of the pan. Let cool for another 10-15 minutes, or until no longer warm to the touch.
  • Drizzle the glaze over the cake. Garnish with the Butterfinger Bits or crushed Butterfinger bars.

Time 1h50m

Yield 15-20 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 (16 1/2 ounce) box devil's food cake mix
3 eggs (or as called for by your cake mix)
1/3 cup oil (or as called for by your cake mix)
1 1/3 cups water (or as called for by your cake mix)
1 (8 ounce) jar caramel topping
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
8 1/2 ounces butterfinger candy bars, crushed
1 (12 ounce) container Cool Whip, thawed
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, room temperature

Steps:

  • Bake cake according to directions on the box. Remove from oven and immediately poke holes in the top of the cake with a drinking straw or chopstick to make holes for the caramel topping to sink into.
  • Prepare the caramel topping by mixing the caramel and sweetened condensed milk in a small bowl until well combined. Drizzle over the warm cake so it seeps down into the holes.
  • Measure out half of the crushed candy bars and sprinkle the pieces over the cake.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine thawed whipped topping and softened cream cheese with an electric mixer on low speed until smooth and creamy. Spread mixture over top of the candy. Sprinkle remaining candy pieces on top.
  • Place, uncovered, in the freezer for about an hour; then place in the refrigerator until ready to serve. Refrigerate leftovers.
