Ding Dong Cake III

By Addie

"I made this cake last year for a Christmas party. When I got home, I had 25 pieces of paper asking for the recipe. It is a simple, easy cake to make, but the finished product tastes just like ding dong cakes. If you want a cake that is impressive and want to get raves, this one is it bar-none."

Ingredients

• Cake:
• 1 (18 ounce) boxes devil's food cake mix
• 3 eggs ( or as called for by your cake mix)
• 1/3 cup oil ( or as called for by your cake mix)
• 1 1/3 cups water ( or as called for by your cake mix)
• 1 (16 ounce) cans milk chocolate frosting
• ..................................................................
• Filling: (what really makes the cake)
• 2/3 cup Crisco
• 1/3 cup evaporated milk
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• 1 pinch salt
• 1/2 cup powdered sugar

Preparation

Step 1

Bake cake and divide into layers (I used 9x13 pan, but you can do it in rounds and even do 4-6 layers). Bake according to package directions.

Mix Crisco, cream, sugar, vanilla and salt well; then add powder sugar and mix all well.

Spread filling between layers and frost entire cake with milk chocolate frosting.

(Please don’t substitute anything for the milk chocolate frosting--it tastes like candy and the other frostings don’t).
