Angel food cake, Butterfinger® candy bars and Cool Whip® are the well known favorites in this delightful (and easy) no-bake dessert. Looks great in a trifle bowl. I don't even like Butterfinger® bars and I thoroughly enjoy this stuff!! You can do this in a 9x13-inch pan as well, but the trifle looks so nice!

Ridiculously sweet and tangy. Almost too rich. Sweet on sweet on sweet was a bit much I think. Once in a year type of thing. Read More

I only use about a half cup of confectioners sugar. Can be used with any candy bars. Our family go to for birthdays! Read More
