This Kit Kat and M&M cake is very appealing. RecipeGirl has the recipe. It's a traditional layer cake inside. I'd prefer if the guts were Twinkies. (via Neatorama)

    The guts could be Ho-Hos, Ho-Hos with the ends trimmed off so you could drench them with creme de cacao, making it into some big, evil sugary tiramisu of doom.

    Evidently my breakfast has worn off.

    “This Kit Kat and M&M cake is very appalling”

    • retchdog

      seriously. just a lot of crappy chocolate. nestlé knows how to make real chocolate, they just don’t bother. :(

        nowadays you don’t find real chocolate anymore than you can find real olive oil. those are things of the past

        • retchdog

          communism: the chocolate ration has been increased to 25 grams.

          capitalism: your chocolatey food product has been improved with added hydrogenated vegetable oil and new smaller portion sizes for your dietary convenience.

    My sister made one and it was freaking delicious. Because the inside was vanilla, the chocolate M&Ms and Kit-Kats weren’t overpowering. Super simple to make too. http://imgur.com/a/K0vJY

  • Consumatopia

    no the inside should just be M&Ms all the way down

    maybe with skittles mixed in

    who wouldn’t love that?

    • bkad

      I had a hiking buddy who mixed skittles and m&ms in our hiking trail mix (other ingredients included peanuts, tree nuts, and dried fruit). I was not pleased.

    Please people of developed world, know that your diet of sugar and fast food is killing you in double quick time, stop stuffing your face with this crap

    • Donald Petersen

      It’s a cake.  For a special occasion, not for weekday breakfasts.

      My dietary habits are shit and will no doubt kill me like they killed half my family, but not because of the M&Ms, KitKats, or cake I’ve eaten.  More likely, it’ll be the red meat and Dr Pepper that hustle me into my early grave.  And maybe the french fries.

    Twinkies, please.  Swiss Cake Rolls FTW.

    How about filling the crater with 151 Rum and making it a Gateau de ChitChat Flambé.

    • http://www.facebook.com/jaytraveller Jay Sanchez

      or just drench it on diesel and let it burn :P

  • timquinn

    m&ms all the way down stuck together with more wax and shellac! 

  • ocker3

    Friend of mine made this kind of thing, but the middle was layered chocolate and strawberry sponge, visually more interesting and it was twice as tall as this one. :)

    Wasn’t at the party though :(
