BUTTERSCOTCH PUDDING LAYER CAKE



Butterscotch Pudding Layer Cake image

If you love butterscotch, you're going to want a slice (or two!) of this incredible pudding layer cake. Made easy with Betty Crocker™ Super Moist™ yellow cake mix, this cake's three layers are given extra flavor with milk, melted butter and butterscotch pudding mix. The layers are separated by a from-scratch butterscotch-dark chocolate buttercream frosting that's then used to frost the entirety of the cake. Crushed pretzels are used to decorate the sides of the cake, while caramel is poured on top to double down on the butterscotch flavor. The caramel is then sprinkled with sea salt for a sweet-and-salty combination that's undeniably delicious.
