How to Make Amaretto Divine

  1. **Prepare the Cake Layers:** Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Grease and flour three 8-inch round baking pans.
  2. **Mix the Batter:** In a large bowl, combine one box (15.25 oz) of your favorite white cake mix, 1 cup amaretto-flavored creamer, 1 cup amaretto liqueur, 4 large eggs, and 1/2 cup vegetable oil. Mix until well blended.
  3. **Bake the Layers:** Divide the batter evenly among the prepared pans. Bake for 15-18 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let the cakes cool in the pans for 10 minutes before inverting them onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  4. **Make the Amaretto Filling:** In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 (3.4 oz) package instant vanilla pudding mix, 1/4 cup amaretto liqueur, and 1 cup amaretto-flavored coffee creamer. Let the mixture sit for 5 minutes to thicken.
  5. **Whip and Fold:** Beat 2 cups heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the amaretto pudding mixture. Stir in 1 cup crushed coffee toffee bars.
  6. **Assemble the Cake:** Once the cake layers are completely cool, place one layer on a serving plate. Spread a generous layer of the amaretto filling over the cake layer. Repeat with the remaining layers, ending with a layer of cake on top.
  7. **Frost and Garnish:** Frost the entire cake with the remaining amaretto filling. Drizzle melted milk chocolate bar (approximately 3 oz) over the top. Sprinkle with 1/4 cup slivered almonds.
  8. **Chill and Serve:** Refrigerate the cake for at least 2 hours before serving to allow the flavors to meld and the filling to set.
