Chocolate Cake & Snicker Bar Filling!!!
Baking By Cristi-Tutty Updated 19 May 2010 , 10:16pm by Cristi-Tutty
My nice b-day is next month and she asked me to make a chocolate cake with snicker bar filling..Could you please help me with a good recipe for the filling and for the cake?
I do not know if the chocolate wasc is good...I have not baked from a box before, if you have a good chocolate cake recipe also I will appreciate it!!!! but I am more concern about the filling.
Thank you in advance for your help!!!
sorry noone's answered you...I was kinda hoping to see if someone had an actual recipe. Could you put a thin layer of ganache or chocolate buttercream as filling and then sprinkle chopped up snickers bars over that?
Or, I've done this with Reese's PB cups...chop them up and use a 1:3 ratio of cream to snickers and make a ganache (ie 4oz's cream to 12 ozs chopped snickers), then whip after it's been in the fridge overnight (careful to not overwhip or it will curdle). just a thought, if nothing else this might bump your post.
good luck,
Sandi
Thank you so much!!!
What cream do you use? Do you think if I do what you said with bettercream and sniker will it work?..I just do not want to be too sweet..
Thanks
I actually use a dulce de leche filling with peanuts to mimick the snickers bar, you can usually get it at the grocery store in the " international" section, they have it canned, I like it a little bit thinner so i microwave it for a little bit with 2tbs of milk and stir, then let it cool down. i know there is a recipe to make it from canned sweet condensed milk but cooking a can has never seemed like a good idea to me. 
I LOVE the Ever-So-Moist Chocolate cake recipe...I think by the Cake mix Doctor...I THINK. It's:
1 box chocolate cake mix with pudding added
1 C sour cream
3/4 c water
1/2 c vegetable oil
3 large eggs
1 tsp. vanilla
Bake at 350 28-32 mins 2 9'' round pans.
I was thinking that you could use either a caramel, or caramel BC with chopped peanuts sprinkled for the filling.
How you make caramel BC? Thank you for the recipe!!!
Here is a recipe for nougat that i found on the google doc. I have never tried it and know nothing about it. If it turns out like the actually nougat of a snickers bar, I woould layer it with peanuts and caramel inside the choc cake!
Nougat (For a "Snickers" cake) - K2Cakes
2 Cups of Soy Milk
9 oz. Soy Marg. (Earth Ballance)
24 oz. Sugar
2 tblsp. Vanilla Essence (or extract)
12 oz. dried Soy Milk powder
*Put the milk, margarine and sugar into a thick saucepan and heat, without stirring, on a low heat until it bubbles and triples in size.
Keep heat steady for 2 min (sugar thermometer, should be 235 F.) Cool. Add the vanilla essence and the dried soy milk and beat till creamy.
Pour into baking trays roughly the size of 48 mars bars and freeze for an hour.
I've made caramel BC by just adding caramel to BC. You could also use some caramel flavored oil, such as Lorann's to enhance the caramel flavor without more sweetness added. HTH!
How about a brown sugar buttercream, which tastes like caramel and then add chopped snickers. I am actually making a Snickers cake this weekend with a chocolate buttercream filling and am making a chocolate cake with the Snicker filling and will be using that brown sugar buttercream recipe.
I think JodieF, does this, if I am thinking of the right person. I know she makes her own caramel and will make a fudge layer using condenced milk and chocolate and she mentioned a snickers layer.

could you please share the recipe for the brown sugar buttercream?
Thank you everyone for your help
I am not at home and do not know the recipe off hand. It is a martha stewart recipe. If you go into her website and do a recipe search, you will find it. I just made it this weekend and folks loved it!
Hello
I was searching for the recipe and just found chocolate cakes recipes. Could you please help me when you get home? or could you give me the name of the recipe so I can look for it?
Thank you so much
Below is the recipe for Brown Sugar Buttercream.
(Makes about 4 cups)
4 large egg whites
1 cup packed light-brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups (3 sticks) unsalted butter, room temperature, cut into tablespoons
Directions:
- In a heatproof bowl set over (not in) a pan of simmering water, whisk together egg whites, sugar, and salt. Cook, whisking constantly, until the sugar has dissolved and the mixture is warm to the touch.
- Transfer to the clean bowl of an electric mixer. Beat on medium speed until fluffy and cooled, about 15 minutes.
- Raise speed to high; beat until stiff peaks form. Reduce speed to medium-low; add butter, 2 to 3 tablespoons at a time, until fully incorporated.

Another idea is to use the basic butter cake recipe and melt and cool some chocolate for the cake. For the filling - soften/melt a Snicker Bar and mix it in with some additional melted chocolate (it will be chunky) and use it for the filling ... ganache will work well also. Hope this helps.
Thank you so much for your help everyone... 
Thank you so much for your help everyone...
This weekend I made some french vanilla mousse mix and added some Mrs. Richardsons caramel topping to it (it was a thicker, nicer caramel than like, the Smuckers kind) and it was a very delightful caramel mousse...I would think it would taste super with some chopped snickers and maybe a thin layer of chocolate ganache sandwiching it.
I've been making the confetti cakes chocolate cake, which works really well for most applications. I've also used the chocolate fudge cake from the cake bible. I fill with home-made caramel, chopped peanuts and whipped chocolate ganache and it goes down very well. Ganache isnt as sweet as buttercream so its a good balance.
hello everyone!! I want to thank you for all your help. The cake came out awesome...thank you, thank you
here is the pic of the cake, hope you like it!!!
