FLAMING BUTTERBRICKLE CAKE

Grease a 13 x 9-inch pan.

Follow directions to bake a YELLOW CAKE from a BOX MIX. (I replaced the oil called for in the box with MELTED BUTTER.)

After baking - let cake cool one minute and turn out onto a tray or serving plate.

Cool completely.

Frost cake with COOL WHIP (8 ounces).

Drain one can of PEACH HALVES, and put aside.

Grate two (2) BUTTERFINGER CANDY BARS and sprinkle on top of COOL WHIP.

Next space PEACH HALVES gently on top of cake with COOL WHIP icing.

Soak SUGAR CUBES in LEMON EXTRACT and place one SUGAR CUBE inside each PEACH HALF.

Just before serving...light the cubes and watch it flame!

When flames begin to subside...extinguish and remove the sugar cubes.

For a real flair - be sure to turn out the lights before lighting the cake.

This week I used this recipe to make cupcakes - rather than using a 13 x 9-inch pan. I did not have peaches or sugar cubes in my pantry...so we enjoyed the cupcakes without setting anything on fire.
