Pin This RecipeIf you follow me on Twitter or Facebook you already know about this cake. I made this cake for Chicken Legs birthday this past weekend. He actually came up with this cake and I baked it for him.
This Snickers Cake is super easy to make. Start with making a chocolate sheet cake. As soon as it comes out of the oven, poke holes all over the cake with a fork or spoon handle. Mix together caramel ice cream topping and sweetened condensed milk. Pour that mixture over the warm cake and cool completely. Once the cake has cooled, top the cake with chopped Snickers candy bars, whipped cream, chopped peanuts, chocolate and caramel sauce.
I made homemade whipped cream for this cake. Feel free to swap the whipped cream for a tub of Cool Whip. It will still taste great!
This cake was over the top delicious! It is similar to some of the other candy bar cakes we’ve made recently but on steroids. This cake was actually better the second day (if you can wait that long). Be warned – this is super-rich. Make sure you have plenty of people to share it with!

how much Smucker's hot caramel ice cream topping do u use as far as cups/oz?
Daysi – yes, it is vanilla extract. I hope you enjoy the cake!
When the recipe calls for vanilla…is it extract?
I have to say…you are my hero! I just finished making this cake for my husband's birthday, it looks so yummy! It is in the fridge taunting me right now. Next time (yes there WILL be a next time) I need to whip the cream longer to make it fluffier, I was afraid of turning into butter. It still turned out fluffy but not as fluffy as yours.
Julie – hot is just part of the name of the sauce. If you can't find hot caramel sauce, you can just use regular caramel sauce
I hope it isn't too late to ask a question but are you supposed to heat the caramel ice cream topping before mixing or is hot just part of the name?
Made this for July 4th party and it was a hit! im becoming the "cake lady" in the family. ill have to try all your cake recipes now so i dont have repeats unless requested!
I was wondering about Sunday Dinner dessert–well, I'll wonder no longer. This will be an amazing surprise to those lovlies who gather around my table!
Made this for my son's girlfriend for her birthday this weekend. It was a HUGE hit. Will be trying this out with other candy bar/cake mix combos. The icing made with heavy cream is really the perfect topping. Thanks for sharing your recipe.
