  • ½ tsp baking soda

  • ¼ tsp salt

  • ½ cup powdered sugar

  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

  • ¼ cup chopped Reese’s Pieces 🍬

  • ¼ cup crushed Butterfinger bars 🍫

Chocolate Ganache

  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

  • ½ cup heavy cream πŸ₯›


πŸ‘©‍🍳 Directions

1️⃣ Preheat the Oven

Preheat to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 8-inch round cake pans.

2️⃣ Make the Chocolate Batter

Whisk dry ingredients (flour, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda, salt, sugar) in a large bowl. In another bowl, mix eggs, milk, oil, and vanilla. Combine wet and dry ingredients just until blended.

3️⃣ Bake the Cakes

Divide batter evenly into the prepared pans. Bake for 25–30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Cool 10 minutes in pans, then transfer to wire racks to cool completely.

4️⃣ Make Cheesecake Filling

Beat cream cheese until smooth. Add powdered sugar and vanilla, mix until creamy. Fold in chopped Reese’s Pieces and Butterfinger.

5️⃣ Assemble the Cake

Place one cooled cake layer on a serving plate. Spread the cheesecake filling evenly. Top with the second cake layer.

6️⃣ Make Ganache

Heat heavy cream in a saucepan until just simmering. Remove from heat and stir in chocolate chips until smooth and glossy.

7️⃣ Glaze the Cake

Let ganache cool slightly, then pour over the cake, letting it drip down the sides.

8️⃣ Chill & Serve

Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to set the ganache. Slice and enjoy!
