Comments
I love to experiment with different flavors for this cake.

Try making a Strawberry Punch Bowl Cake as follows: Substitute strawberry cake mix for the chocolate. Substitute strawberry pie filling for the chocolate bars.

Butterscotch is delicious too: Substitute Butter Pecan cake mix for the chocolate. Substitute Butterscotch pudding for the vanilla. Substitue Butterscotch ice cream topping drizzled on Cool Whip, for chocolate bars.

This cake can be made in a variety of flavors, use your imagination.
