How to Make Amaretto Cake

  1. Bake one box (typically 15.25 oz) of your favorite cake mix according to package directions.
  2. Crumble 1/3 of the cooled cake into the bottom of a clear glass bowl (approximately 8x8 inches).
  3. Drizzle 1/3 cup of amaretto liqueur over the crumbled cake.
  4. Spread 1/3 (approximately 1 cup) of thawed Cool Whip over the amaretto-soaked cake.
  5. Sprinkle 1/3 cup of chopped Heath bits over the Cool Whip.
  6. Repeat layers (crumbled cake, amaretto, Cool Whip, Heath bits) two more times, ending with Heath bits on top.
  7. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow flavors to meld before serving. Enjoy the beautiful layered effect in your glass bowl!

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Small additions can make a big impact! Try a sprinkle of fresh herbs, a dash of your favorite spice blend, or a squeeze of citrus just before serving to really enhance the flavors of your dish.
