• Bake 25 to 30 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool 10 minutes. Poke warm cake every inch with bamboo skewer halfway into cake, twisting skewer back and forth. Pour caramel topping over cake, spreading to fill holes. Cool completely in pan on cooling rack.
• In medium microwavable bowl, place 42 of the candy bars, the butter and milk. Microwave on Medium (50%) 1 minute, then in 15-second intervals, until candy is melted and mixture can be stirred smooth. Stir in vanilla.

MILKY WAY CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Grease and flour three 9-inch cake pans.
• In a double boiler, melt the candy bars with 1/2 cup butter. As the candy bars and butter are melting, they will begin to look almost curdled, but it will eventually come together into a smooth consistency. Remove from heat and let cool.
• In a large bowl, use an electric mixer to combine the remaining 1 cup of butter with the sugar. Mix in the beaten eggs and cooled chocolate mixture.
• Sift the flour and baking soda together. Alternately mix in flour and buttermilk to the batter, blending well. Add the vanilla.
• Divide the batter between the three cake pans, filling each no more than halfway. Bake 30 to 40 minutes, or until toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. If you have extra batter, make a few cupcakes!
• To prepare the frosting: Combine the sugar and evaporated milk in a medium saucepan. Cook to a soft-ball stage. Remove from heat and add butter, marshmallow cream and chocolate chips, stirring until all have melted.
• Place one layer of the cake on a platter. Frost the top of that layer, letting the frosting spill over the sides a bit. Add another layer of cake on top of the first. Frost that one the same way. Add the final layer of cake on top and use the rest of the frosting. Note that the sides of the cake will be "naked," and the frosting is just spread on top of each layer.

Steps:

• Prepare the Cake Layers: Preheat oven to 350°F. Combine candy bars and 1/2 cup butter in a small saucepan; cook over medium heat, whisking frequently, until melted and smooth, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat and cool 5 minutes.
• Beat granulated sugar and remaining 1/2 cup butter with an electric mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add eggs 1 at a time, beating until blended after each addition. Whisk together flour, salt, and baking soda. Gradually add flour mixture, alternately with buttermilk, beginning and ending with flour mixture. Beat on low speed just until blended after each addition. Add melted candy mixture and vanilla; beat on low speed just until blended. Divide batter among 3 greased (with shortening) and floured 9-inch round pans.
• Bake in preheated oven until a wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean, 25 to 30 minutes. Cool in pans on a wire rack 10 minutes. Remove from pan to wire rack; cool completely, about 30 minutes.
• Prepare the Frosting: Microwave chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl on HIGH 1 minute or until melted and smooth, stirring after 30 seconds. Cool 5 minutes.
• Beat butter and powdered sugar with an electric mixer on low speed until smooth. Add malt drink mix, vanilla, and salt; beat on low speed 2 minutes. Add melted chocolate and beat on low speed 2 minutes. Add 3 tablespoons cream and beat on medium speed until smooth and spreadable, adding an additional tablespoon of cream if needed to reach desired consistency.
• Spread frosting between layers and on top and sides of cake. Garnish with candy bars as desired.
