How to Make Beaches And Cream
- Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Grease and flour a 10-inch angel food cake pan.
- In a medium saucepan over low heat, melt 1 cup of the chopped Milky Way bars with ½ cup (1 stick) of the softened butter. Stir until smooth.
- In a large bowl, cream together the remaining ½ cup (1 stick) of softened butter and 2 cups of granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add the melted Milky Way mixture to the creamed butter and sugar. Mix well to combine.
- Add the egg yolks one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
- In a small bowl, dissolve the baking soda in the buttermilk.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients (flour) and the buttermilk mixture to the wet ingredients, alternating between the two and beginning and ending with the flour. Mix until just combined.
- In a clean, dry bowl, beat the egg whites to stiff peaks. Gently fold the egg whites and the chopped pecans into the batter.
- Pour the batter into the prepared angel food cake pan.
- Bake for 1 hour and 10 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the cake cool completely in the pan before inverting onto a wire rack.
- Melt the semi-sweet chocolate chips in a double boiler or microwave. Once melted, spread evenly over the cooled cake.
- Let the chocolate frosting set before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
