This is one of my husband's favorite desserts, and asks me to make it every chance I can -- we call it "Great Cake" because it truly is GREAT! :) I usually do Recipe #208645 instead of the chocolate cake and it's still just as rich and delicious. I also use just two candy bars and find that's plenty for the top.

hI My name is Jennifer and I have 2 passions in this world. They include my family and cooking. I love to cook and to try new things. Sometimes my boyfriends thinks I am crazy when I am cooking and trying new things but he always seems to like them. Cooking is one my favorite things. I am always cooking and my boyfriend and family absolutely love it. They never know what is going to be baking or on the stove when they come in. I haven't had any bad reviews yet from them.
