So my wife introduced me to a recipe for a phenomenal cake. I really, really recommend it.
1. bake a cake. You can use any cake mix really.
2. poke holes in it with the circular end of a wooden spoon or some other circular object. make sure to use a lot of holes.
3. heat up a jar of caramel until liquid-y. pour it all over the cake (yum).
4. Pour a can of unsweetened condensend milk all over as well.
5. leave it for a bit to soak
6. put whip cream and broken heath bars on top.
yeah I'm vague about the measurements but this cake is worth the effort.
vagueness makes it more fun :D now...... to go get some money to do this......

Ohhhhh HEATH not Health. I thought this was some gimmick about retro gaming. Now I'm a lot less interested.

I fell for the misleading "t" as well.
Anyways, I don't bake, but I would easily in the name of gaming. Someday I shall return to this recipe, I promise you.

Thanks for sharing this recipe with us, Blue.
If I may be so bold, I would recommend buying a carton of actual whipping cream and making it yourself with a fwisk.
Add only about 2 Tbsp sugar gradually, about a tsp at a time periodically while whipping.
When your arms get tired and you need a break just slam it in the fridge for a while and this will aid standing it up.
I made a cake with such whipped cream recently and it was nearly lethal.
Authorities had to be called in to break up the fight over the last of it.

Good for more than just whipping cream.

@the Health guys; I didn't intend to trick you, sorry.
@JG that's what the original recipe calls for but I thought not too many people would want to do that, so I left that part vague. The vague parts are kind of fill-in-the-blank.

The recipe sounds too sweet for me but oddly enough when I went to tell my wife about it(she likes heath) she already had the recipe.

I don't think we get these "Heaths" here in Canada, perhaps JG or Cam can confirm for the west coast.

I know naught of this Heath.
Sorry.
Must be a pretty special bar if it's good enough to top a cake.
Just don't forget the fwisk.

You flops (joke) have never heard of Heath? But isn't it an English chocolate bar? It's basically just a nutty-crunchy candy stick, not too bad when grinded up and added as chocolate sprinkles to some sweets.

A Canadian could never go calorie for calorie with an American, thus a lot of your tasty treats don't survive here.

Okay sounds just like a SKOR bar, we have those.

Actually from what I've seen, when it comes to candies and things of that nature it seems to be a regional thing.
For example, here in Canada we have our lovely Ketchup flavor chips:

I looked it up and it's practically the same thing, I kind of want one now.
Looks like this recipe is getting popular, I wonder where it originated.

There is no Ketchup chips outside of Canada!? Man we gotta get them circulating.

I wonder, what will happen if I go to a Canadian bar and ask for ketchup chips and bagged milk?

Or dill pickle!!!!

They'd point you to the vending machine for the chips, then they'd tell you that they don't sell milk by the bag there and offer you a glass of milk instead.

Oh. I guess in that situation I would feel like a complete douche.
Anyways, we do have Dill pickle chips here in the states, but I don't know how much further it goes.

We have ketchup chips here too you weirdos. I actually love them but no one else I know will even touch them. We also have weird ones like sour cream and clam. One time my dad bought them by mistake, took a big handful while driving down the road, spit them back into the back and poured it out the window in disgust. It was really funny to see.

DB:
sour cream and clam.
And you're calling us weirdos?
{kidding}
That does sound like an aquired taste there for certain.
About the strangest one I can recall is Bacon flavor.
That one is just wrong in my books.

I think sour cream and clam was a regional one, I only saw it in maine. I assumed it was from canada because maine shares a lot of products with their neighbors to the north.
Another odd one only I like is guacamole chips. They're really salty and green but man are they good. They got those in tundra?

Yes, I've tried those = not as good as the real thing but interesting, in the same way as those ketchup chips.
BY THE WAY, referring to the picture I posted above:
I forgot to mention that the bag of 'baked' ketchup chips are like Pringles, not real chips but some kind of potato mash extruded - pressed mystery chips.
:sidefrown:
The ones on the right are awesome.
:love:
I also like the Mexican chili ones {not the least bit hot, by the way}:

and a certain store here called 'The Real Canadian Superstore' has their own line of products called 'President's Choice' which sometimes live up to their name.
This is one of the products that does:

Yeah I know, bacon bad, chicken good?
Ask my taste buds, 'cause I can't explain it.

I've had ketchup chips and fries(like those andy capp fries) and both were good. But despite that I think they would taste like manure compared to general tao chicken flavor. That sounds like it's heaven in a bag.

Oh god no, I tried those general toa's and another flavor by that brand, wings with blue cheese I think, they were both absolutly disgusting. Both in flavour and texture.
