In early 2000's late 90's I found a recipe for a chocolate cake. It was very rich, 2-3 layers, made with chocolate candy bars, chocolate frosting, and almonds slivered on top and sides. My family loved this cake, but I have lost the recipe. I tried to make one by memory a while back. Needless to say they weren't impressed. If anyone has the recipe, please share it. This is the cake my daughter has begged for, for her birthday for 10-12 years.
