How to Make Hershey's Bar Cake

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour four 9-inch round cake pans.
  2. In a large bowl, combine cake mix, eggs, oil, water, and vanilla extract according to cake mix instructions. Divide batter evenly among the prepared cake pans.
  3. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let cakes cool in pans for 10 minutes before inverting onto wire racks to cool completely.
  4. While cakes cool, prepare the frosting: In a medium bowl, beat together butter and cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add powdered sugar, beating until light and fluffy. Stir in 4 cups of grated Hershey's chocolate bars with almonds (about 4 standard bars). Fold in 1 cup of chopped pecans.
  5. Once cakes are completely cool, frost the top of one layer with a generous amount of frosting. Top with a second cake layer and repeat until all layers are stacked. Frost the entire cake, including the sides.
  6. Garnish with additional chopped pecans and/or chocolate shavings (optional).
