Yield Makes 12-16 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

6 (2.15 oz) Milky Way Bars
1 Cup Butter, divided
2 cups sugar
4 eggs
2.5 Cups Flour(I use organic AP flour)
1/2 TSP Baking Soda
1/4 TSP Salt
1 1/4 Cups Butter Milk

Steps:

  • Grease large tube pan, line bottom of pan with parchment, grease again, and lightly flour bottom. Shake out excess. Set aside. Preheat Oven to 325 degrees In saucepan or microwave, melt candy bars and 1/2 cup butter, stirring occasionally until smooth. Set aside. (If using stove, stand by stove and use low heat, chocolate can burn easily) In large mixing bowl, cream remaining, butter and sugar until fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add melted candy slowly while blending, so as to not cook the eggs. In a seperate bowl, comine dry ingredients. Add alternately with butermilk to the creamed butter and candy muxture. Blend together well. Batter will be thin. Turn batter into prepared pan and bake in pre-heated oven for 1 hour and 30 minutes, or until cake tests done. May test done after 1 hour depending on weather. I tend to check at 45 minutes and every 15 minutes there after. Remove from oven and cool for 10 minutes before inverting onto a cake rack to cool completely.
