TASTYKAKE KANDY KAKE LAYER CAKE

Tastykake Kandy Kake Layer Cake image

I am a Pennsylvania gal through and through. Love the state, love the food and love the people. One of my favorite PA treats are small cakes and cupcakes made by Tastykake out of Philadelphia PA. A friend of mine loves the Peanut Butter Kandy Kakes so I came up with this recipe so that she can have the taste of them any time (even though you can order them from their website). This is super simple box cake recipe that only takes minutes to make. I think the reason it works is because of the particular brands of cake mix and frosting. Hope you enjoy.
