Liberty Tree Tavern: Ooey Gooey Toffee Cake

*serves 8

Bottom Layer Ingredients:

  • 1 box yellow cake mix
  • 1 stick butter, softened and cut into chunks
  • 1 egg

Directions:

Preheat oven to 325-degrees.   Mix the above 3 ingredients in a large bowl with an electric mixer. The batter will be thick, similar to cookie dough. Spread evenly (filling halfway) into each compartment of a large muffin cup pan. Set aside.

Top Layer Ingredients:

  • 1 (8 ounces) brick cream cheese, softened
  • 1 stick butter, softened and cubed
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 cup Heath Bar pieces
  • 1 (16 ounces) bag powdered sugar

Toppings:

  • vanilla ice cream
  • chocolate syrup
  • caramel syrup
  • Heath Bar pieces

Directions:

With an electric mixer, cream butter, and cream cheese. Add in eggs, one at a time. Mix in vanilla. Blend well on medium speed. Slowly add in powdered sugar, 1 cup at a time, scraping sides of bowl occasionally.    Once the batter is mixed well, reduce speed to low and pour in chocolate chips and Heath Bar pieces. Blend just until pieces are incorporated into all the batter; do not overmix.   Spread the batter (will be thick) evenly over the first cake layers in pan. Bake in preheated oven for 25 minutes or until done. Remove from the oven and let cool in the pan for 5 minutes.   Remove each muffin and place it onto individual plates. Top with a scoop of vanilla ice cream then drizzles with both chocolate and caramel syrups. Finish off with a dusting of Heath Bar pieces. Enjoy!!
