For the Cake:

2 cups of all-purpose flour
1/2 cup of cocoa powder
1 teaspoon of baking soda
1 teaspoon of baking powder
1/2 teaspoon of salt
3/4 cup of butter, melted
2 cups of granulated sugar
3 large eggs
1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
1 cup of whole milk

For the Frosting:

2 sticks of butter, softened
4 cups of confectioner's sugar
1/2 teaspoon of salt
2 teaspoons of vanilla extract
1/4 cup of heavy cream
2 cups of crushed butterfinger pieces

Instructions

To make the cake, preheat your oven to 350 degrees F and lightly grease two 9-inch round cake pans. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.

In a large bowl, beat together the melted butter and sugar until smooth. Beat in the eggs, one at a time, until combined. Beat in the vanilla extract. Add the dry ingredients and the milk to the butter mixture and mix until just combined. Divide the batter evenly between the two prepared pans and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Allow the cakes to cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then remove them from the pans and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

To make the frosting, beat the butter in a large bowl until light and fluffy. Gradually beat in the confectioners' sugar, salt, and vanilla extract until the mixture is light and fluffy. Beat in the heavy cream until the frosting is smooth. Fold in the crushed butterfinger pieces.

To assemble the cake, place one cake layer on a serving platter. Spread a generous amount of frosting over the top. Place the second layer on top and spread the remaining frosting over the top and sides of the cake. Sprinkle the top with the remaining butterfinger pieces.

Your butterfinger cake is now ready to be served! Enjoy!
