CARAMEL TOFFEE CAKE

Steps:

• Mix whipped topping and caramel topping gently until combined.
• Cut cake in half horizontally.
• Place the bottom layer on a serving plate; spread with 1 cup cream mixture and sprinkle with 1/3 cup candy bars. Then put another layer of the cream mixture and another layer of candy bar pieces.
• Place top layer of cake back on top of cream/candy bar layers.
• Frost top and sides with remaining cream mixture and sprinkle with remaining candy bars.
• Store in the refrigerator.
• NOTES: Be sure to store covered or the icing will become hard and sticky! I use reduced sugar/fat items and it comes out well but with a slightly different texture on the icing. Also I figued out the easiest way to crush the candy bars is to take a meat tenderizer to them and gently hammer them!
