This Almost Like Candy Bars are a family favorite not only for the taste but for the simplicity. It’s my go to recipe when I need a quick dessert!
Are you having a hard day? Are your children making you a little crazy? Does it feel like every day is Monday?
I feel your pain and sometimes you just need a little bit of chocolate to make everything right.
These Almost Like Candy Bars are our family go to recipe for parties, events, church functions and family game night. They are easy and delicious, a throw together scrumptious taste of heaven in a chocolate concoction.
This is a family favorite not only because of its taste but for its simplicity. I never take these goodies to a function without being asked for the recipe. You can’t go wrong!
Almost Like Candy Bars
Ingredients:
- 1 pkg. devil’s food cake mix
- 1/2 cup margarine or butter (softened)
- 1 cup butterscotch chips
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup white chocolate chips
- 1 cup Heath English toffee bits
- 1 14-oz can sweetened condensed milk
- 1 pkg. devil’s food cake mix
- 1/2 cup margarine or butter softened
- 1 cup butterscotch chips
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup peanut butter chips
- 1 cup Heath English toffee bits
- 1 14- oz can sweetened condensed milk
- Heat oven to 350 degrees F. In large bowl, combine cake mix and margarine, mixing together with a fork.
- Press into bottom of greased 9×13 baking dish.
- Sprinkle with butterscotch, chocolate and white chocolate chips and Heath Bits.
- Pour sweetened condensed milk evenly over all ingredients.
- Bake at 350 degrees F for 25 to 30 minutes or until light golden brown.
- Cool completely and serve plain or with whipped topping or ice cream.
You can mix and match your toppings (chocolate chips, heath bits, nuts, coconut, etc.) to your liking. You can’t have too much or too many!
I sometimes double this recipe and put it in a 10x13 (or lasagna size) dish. Allow extra cooking time. I judge this dessert as done when the cake mix that pokes through the top starts to brown. If you don't cook it enough it will just be gooier!
