This is the cake that trumps all cakes.
When I was a little girl I used to spend a lot of time at my grandparent’s house. I absolutely loved it over there, especially spending time with my beloved Grandpa Joe. Now, grandpa loved watching baseball games, especially the Cubs. They were his team. Gosh, do I wish he would have been alive to see the cubs win the World Series. I’m sure he was cheering from heaven 🙂 Anyway, I remember the famous announcer, Harry Caray, always saying “Holy Cow!” when someone hit a homerun and those words stuck with me.
Years later, I come across a Holy cow cake and instantly remembered Harry Caray and spending summer afternoons with grandpa.
If you are into insanely sweet and heavy desserts, then this is the cake you must make. I’m telling you what, Mr. Hharry Caray would have definitely given a big old “Holy Cow” if he ever laid eyes on this delicious confection of chocolatey, caramelly, sugary goodness. It’s got everything in it, including Butterfinger pieces.
Yum! This si a not a cake for amateur dessert eaters. However, it isn’t very hard to make and anyone can do it so get your little hiney in the kitchen and make your own Holy Cow cake. You won’t be sorry 🙂
Holy Cow cake isn’t the dessert you want to cheat on your diet with because it really won’t be cheating but rather defeating LOL! But, you know what? You’ve gotta live a little sometimes, right? Right! I love making this cake for a special party dessert or group gathering. A little bit goes a long way because of the sheer richness of this dessert. It will literally make you say, “holy cow!” or “cowabunga!” LOL You’ll also succumb to a major sugar high hehe.

Ingredients
1 package Duncan Hines devils food cake mix
1 1/3 cup water
1/2 cup Wesson vegetable oil
3 Eggland’s Best eggs
8 ounces Smucker’s prepared butterscotch ice cream topping
1 (14-ounce) can Eagle Brand sweetened condensed milk
8 ounces Butterfinger candy bars (any size as long as it equals 8 ounces)
1 (8-ounce) container frozen whipped topping, thawed
8 ounces Philadelphia cream cheese, softened
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a 9 x 13-inch baking pan with cooking spray.
In an electric mixer, place cake mix and, with mixer running on low, add water, oil, and eggs. Scrape down sides of the bowl and mix on medium for 2 minutes until all dry ingredients are well combined.
Smooth batter into prepared bake pan and bake for 35 to 40 minutes. Remove cake to a cooling rack and immediately poke holes from top to bottom using a wooden spoon handle or chopstick.
Combine the butterscotch topping with the condensed milk in a bowl and pour over the cake slowly so that it seeps into the holes and permeates the cake.
Crush the candy into bits and sprinkle the top of the cake with half of the bits.
With an electric mixer on low, mix whipped topping with cream cheese until smooth. Spread on top of the cake and garnish with the remaining crushed candy bits. Cover top lightly with a sheet of waxed paper and chill for 1 hour or overnight before serving.
