Hi, it’s Jenn, from Eat Cake For Dinner. I don’t know about you, but I crave chocolate all.the.time. Whether it’s a candy bar, cake, frosting, fudge or whatever . . . just give me some chocolate:) One of my favorite candy bars is an Almond Joy. There is just something about that gooey coconut center covered in creamy chocolate that gets me every time. So, when I was feeling like an Almond Joy, I decided to turn that yummy candy bar into a decadent cake. This cake totally tastes like an Almond Joy.
The base is a simple chocolate cake made with a box mix. Devil’s Food is my chocolate cake mix of choice lately. I really like the flavor of it, so that is what I used. Then, the middle layer is a gooey, sticky and totally divine coconut mixture. I tried the filling using cream of coconut and I tried it using sweetened condensed milk. The cream of coconut will give you more coconut flavor, but it really is delicious both ways. To top it off, I made my go-to Easy Chocolate Icing. I always have the ingredients on hand and it comes together super fast. Don’t forget the sliced almonds on top and there you have it . . . An irresistible cake that will satisfy your chocolate craving.
