Whoppen Cake


It's really called Chocolate Cake with Malt Topping, the best cake EVER.
From Better Homes and Garden

Cake ( I actually made frosting first, needs refrigeration)
Put in bowl:
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
(use 3 8x8x2 inch pans, grease and put one teaspoon of cocoa in pans, put the rest in bowl)
2 cups all purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda

In another bowl:
2/3 cup butter, softened
1 3/4 cup sugar
Beat and add one at a time;
3 eggs
4 oz unsweetened chocolate, melted and cooled
2 teaspoons vanilla

Alternate beating in flour mixture and 1 1/2 cups milk into butter mixture. Pour into pans bake 350 for 17 to 20 min.

Malt topping Frosting- seriously yummy
Heat 2 cups heavy whipping cream just until boiling, remove from heat add 1/3 cup malted milk powder, stir. Add 2 11.5 oz milk chocolate pieces do not stir, cover and let sit for 10 min. Then stir and refrigerate 3 hrs. Beat with electric mixer for 3 min, becomes light brown and fluffy.


Layer frosting and cakes. Mine was a little crumbly, but it was a day or two old, but ummm..
2 cups of malted milk balls for decor
