Hershey Bar Chocolate Cake

1 box devil's food cake mix
1 (3.3) pkg. instant vanilla pudding
3 eggs
1 1/2 cups milk
3/4 cup oil

Preheat oven to 325. Mix together cake mix, vanilla pudding, eggs, milk and oil. Pour into 3 (9 inch) greased and floured cake pans. Bake for approx. 25 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Remove, cool for a few minutes, and turn out of pans. Cool completely.

Frosting:
3 (1.55 oz) Hershey bars
1 (8 oz) pkg. cream cheese
1 (15 oz) box confectioners sugar
1 (8 oz) container Cool Whip- thawed
3/4 cup chopped pecans

Put the candy bars in a food processor ( I just chop them with my pampered chef chopper) and chop into tiny pieces. Save one bar to sprinkle on the top of the finished cake. Mix cream cheese and confectioners sugar until thoroughly blended. Fold in Cool Whip and pecans and candy bar pieces. Spread frosting between layers of cake, then top and sides. If icing doesn't spread easily I have heated it up just a few seconds in the microwave. Keep cake refrigerated.

**I found this recipe on our school website (we have a recipe forum where people post their delicious recipes) and I thought it sounded amazing! I have NOT made this particular cake myself but I will be trying it in the near future! (just need to find an occasion to make a cake!) But I don't see how you could go wrong with this recipe...YUM!
