Hi there all my friends! It’s Gina from Kleinworth & Co. It’s been a long time since I have shared one of my yummy bar recipes here with you all. So today I thought these thick, chewy, chocolate cake mix bars stuffed full of Snickers candy bars would be a great choice. Positively delicious dessert idea that’s super easy to make! Have you ever made cake mix bars before? I love them because I almost always have a ton of cake mixes in the pantry just begging to be made into something wonderful. I almost always like to have a little treat of some sort in the house. It’s a nice way to have one after dinner. It definitely gives me a little extra drive to tackle the dinner dishes when I have had a bite of something sweet. These cake mix bars certainly take care of that. I mean, if you love Snickers bars- then adding all that caramel, nougat, pea-nutty goodness to a chocolate cake bar is just sheer heaven.
To make these it’s at simple as a regular cake mix recipe, only with slightly different ingredients. You just combine, mix, spread & bake. That’s it & in just about an hour you can be enjoying these yourself. I especially love quick & easy recipes like these because they are great for teaching my kids how to function in the kitchen. As teens & tweens it’s good for them to be comfortable learning to prepare foods for themselves. Starting off with things that aren’t so complicated like these sure gives them a sense of accomplishment as they ease into the harder recipes. They love taking them to different gatherings & being able to tell people that THEY made them – not their mom. You should see them beam with pride as people gush over how good they are.
