Description
A Kit Kat Cake is a cake made with store-bought cake mix and gets topped with M & M's and Kit Kat's around the edge of the cake.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 15.5 oz box of chocolate cake mix
- 1 1/4 cups water.
- 1/3 cup vegetable oil
- 3 eggs
- 2 16 oz container of chocolate frosting (a extra for incase you run out)
- Three 4.5-ounce Giant Kit Kat Bars (you'll need 36 Kit Kat sticks total)
- One 12.6-ounce bag M&M's
Instructions
- Heat oven to 350 F
- Grease 9in round cake pans with cooking spray.
- 2. Beat cake mix, water, oil and eggs in large bowl on low speed 30 seconds, then on medium speed 2 minutes, scraping bowl occasionally. Pour into pan.
- 3. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let the cakes completely cool for 10 minutes before removing from pan. Cool completely before frosting.
- 4. When the cake is cool, you're ready to assemble. Place one layer on a serving plate, and tuck strips of waxed paper underneath the sides of the cake.
- 6. Frost the 1st cake layer. Set the 2nd layer on top of the first. Frost the 2nd layer and along the sides of the cake too.
- 7. Stick Kit Kat's to the sides of the cake, leaving a very small space in between each Kit Kat (1/4-inch). Fill the top of the cake with M&M's. Pull out the strips of waxed paper and discard. Use any extra frosting to frost your 6 extra cupcakes.
- 8. If you refrigerate the cake for a couple of hours or so, it will be much easier to cut and serve.
