When I was in Pensacola, FL a few weeks ago, I went to a restaurant that had a unique chocolate cake for dessert. The “cake” consisted of a bottom layer of 1/4 inch-thick cake, then about 2 inches of fudge, then another 1/4 inch of cake, then another 2 inches of fudge, then a third 1/4 inch of cake, and a chocolate ganache icing. It was so rich, I couldn’t eat it all. I had finally found a chocolate cake that defeated me.
When I lived with my grandmother back in 2000, the Winn-Dixie sold candy bar cakes in their bakery/deli section. The cake layers were chocolate, and the center layer was icing made up to look and taste very close to the insides of a candy bar. They mainly used M&M/Mars brand candy bars: Snickers, Milky Way, and 3 Musketeers.
It’s supposed to be like a “Reece’s Peanut Butter Cup”. it looks “win” worthily similar.
(Americans, people outside your country are most likely to not know what those are, hence why I had to say it.)
Just as I was about to post this I saw someone else has already pointed it out.
I’m going to hit “post comment” anyway..
Lol you but in the effort but! I only knew what it was because I love peanut butter candy. Im from Australia and peanut butter candy are very hard to find.

Well, okay, it looks delicious, bit seriously where’s the win? Am I missing something?
cake version of Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups
Thank you. Obviously not all of us are terribly familiar with the innards of American sweets.
the cake is a lie.
I once bought a cake that was so rich that, despite being only about 1cm think, had to be cut into 16 pieces before you could eat it.
Yes, there’s no way I could eat a piece of this Reeses cake that large. Especially because I only like peanut butter in small quantities.

So, where’s the Win ? Looks like a cake to me
I tried to taste it, but it was very similar to LCD. I am disappoint.
Something’s wrong with my computer. I’m throwing money at the screen but nothing’s happening.
Try your credit cards and possibly a safe full of money.
Shut up and take my money
Now…let’s make other candybar cakes. Oh, and oreo cakes. And chocolate chip cookie cakes.
Yeah. Now I want cake.

We have these in the UK (The cups, not the cake) if you know where to look. And they are Ay May Zen. Thank you USA, I’m forever in your debt…..

Hey, still A for the effort but we have these in our country. And I really love Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups.
I must have it…happens to cost $79.95 on this site:
http://www.williams-sonoma.com/products/perfect-endings-peanut-butter-cup-cake/?pkey=ccakes-cookies
SO THAT’S WHAT MONEY TASTES LIKE!
I guess perfect endings DO cost extra…always wondered about that
This would be a breeze to make from scratch (for me, anyway). In fact, i think i’ll make it for the next birthday party I’m conscripted to bake for.
If you post your recipe I’ll do whatever you want forever and ever and ever…..
way too much chocolate
Lies! There is no such thing!
I’M THROWING MONEY AT THE COMPUTER SCREEN AND NOTHING IS HAPPENING
Hey, you got peanut butter in my chocolate cake.
I just came in my mouth a little.
