12 (2.10 oz.) MILKY WAY® bars
3 sticks butter
2 c. sugar
4 eggs
1/2 tsp. baking soda
2 1/2 c. flour
1 c. buttermilk
1 c. nuts, chopped (optional)
2 tsp. vanilla
2 tbsp. milk
1/2 box (1 lb.) powdered sugar

Melt 8 MILKY WAY® bars and 1 stick butter. Cream 2 cups sugar and 1 stick butter. Add 4 eggs, one at a time, 1/2 teaspoon baking soda, 2 1/2 cups flour and 1 cup buttermilk. Add nuts and 2 teaspoons vanilla. Fold into MILKY WAY® mixture. Bake at 300 degrees for 1 hour, in a 9 x 13 inch floured and greased pan.

ICING: Melt 4 MILKY WAY® bars. Add 1 stick butter, 2 tablespoons milk, 1/2 box powdered sugar and beat until smooth.

Melting the candy bars in the microwave works great.

If you don't have buttermilk, use 1 cup milk with 1 tablespoon vinegar in it.
