How To Make chocolate cake with salted butterscotch frosting

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Step 2

To make the cake, coat two (8-inch) round cake pans with cooking spray on the bottom and sides. Split Hershey's kisses between both cake pans (10 each).
Step 3

In a large bowl, combine cake mix, egg whites, water, vegetable oil and pudding mix. Beat at medium speed for 3 minutes until well blended.
Step 4

Add chocolate milk and chopped chocolate bars. Beat again at low speed for 1 minute.
Step 5

Pour into prepared cake pans. Bake for 30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted a center comes out clean. Cool completely for 10 minutes.
Step 6

To make the salted butterscotch frosting, combine the heavy cream, butterscotch pudding, half and half, cream cheese, ice cream topping, and 2 teaspoons sea salt in a medium bowl. Whisk well for 3 minutes until blended. Set aside.
Step 7

Place first cake on a plate. Spread the frosting evenly. Top with white chocolate chips and season with 2 teaspoons sea salt.
Step 8

Place second cake on top of the other cake. Spread remaining frosting on top and sides of the cake. Season with remaining sea salt.
