Recipe submitted by chefdude7263






Ingredients   (view qty in metric system instead)
Cake:
1/2 cup butter
1/4 cup water
3 tbsp. unsweetened cocoa powder
1 cup all purpose flour
1 cup sugar
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/4 tsp. salt
1 large egg, beaten to blend
1/4 cup buttermilk
1 tsp. vanilla extract

Topping:
1 cup heavy whipping cream
3 tbsp. sugar
21 ounce can strawberry pie filling
1/4 cup sliced almonds, toasted
five, 1.2 ounce, plain milk chocolate candy bars

Directions
For Cake:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease and flour the inside of an 8 inch round cake pan. Combine butter, water and cocoa powder in a small saucepan over medium high heat. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Remove the pan from the heat. Stir together the flour, sugar, baking soda and salt in a large bowl. Stir in the egg, buttermilk and vanilla. Blend in the cocoa mixture. Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Bake the cake about 40 to 45 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean. Transfer the pan to a rack and cool 10 minutes. Invert the pan to remove cake. Turn cake right side up and cool completely.

For Topping:
Beat together cream and sugar in a medium bowl until soft peaks form. Frost the top and sides of the cake with a thin layer of the whipped cream. Pipe the remaining whipped cream in a border around the top edge of cake and in a lattice pattern over the top of the cake. Spoon the strawberry pie filling into the diamonds in the lattice. Sprinkle the toasted almonds over the top of the cake. Break each chocolate bar into thirds, crosswise. Overlap chocolate bar pieces around the sides of the the cake, pressing lightly to adhere to the cream. Refrigerate cake until ready to serve.

Serves 12.
