CHOCOLATE CAKE 
1 (13 x 9 inch) chocolate cake mix
2 boxes instant chocolate pudding
2 (8 oz.) whipped dairy topping
1/2 pt. coffee liqueur
2 frozen toffee candy bars, (I like Skor)

This is very easy - the longest part of the process is the cooking of the cake. Bake cake and prepare pudding as specified on packages. While the cake is cooking, that is when I prepare the pudding. All tolled it takes about 1 1/4 hours. 45 minutes of that is waiting for the cake to cook and then cool a little.

Break 1/2 of the cake so that it just fits the bottom and just a little up the side of a large glass salad bowl. (I use a punch bowl, because I usually make this for family gatherings - I usually need to double the recipe.) Sprinkle about 1/3 cup of liqueur over the top of the cake (use more if you like - it really seems to mellow when it gets absorbed! Or use less if you're worried about little ones!) Spread 1/2 of the pudding over the cake and then 1/2 of the whipped dairy topping. I use a hammer to smash the candy bars to smitherenes and then sprinkle this over the whipped dairy topping. Repeat the layers again. Cake (press it down if you need the space!), liqueur, pudding, whipped cream, candy bar. Servings: 6 to 8.
