Candy Bar Dream Chocolate Cake Recipe

Ever wonder what to do with all that leftover Halloween candy? Well, this cake is a great way to use up assorted candy bars.

I usually make this cake right after we get stuck with a bunch of the candy after the holiday and use whatever I can on top.

The cake is layered with instant pudding, cream cheese filling, and a whipped cream topping in between and is very yummy.

All of those creamy layers with a favorite baked cake is just a decadent dessert for any party your hosting and of course, the kids love it.

Although we add Bailey's Irish creme to a layer for the flavor to make this kid-friendly just use a flavored extract or butterscotch, rum, or another flavor you prefer.

The recipe is super easy to make and you'll be asked to make it again, especially for a birthday party for that special someone who loves candy!
