Ingredients

1 chocolate cake mix
1/2 cup coffee liqueur
2 cups fudge sauce
3 chocolate covered toffee candy bars broken into pieces
1 1/2 cups heavy whipping cream whipped & sweetened
1/3 cup sugar
Hot Fudge Sauce
4 ounces German chocolate bar
1/2 ounce unsweetened chocolate
8 tablespoons butter
3 cups powdered sugar
1 2/3 cups evaporated milk
1 1/4 teaspoons vanilla

Instructions

Prepare the cake according to the package directions for a 9x13 inch cake.
Cool thoroughly.
Prick the entire top of the cake with a fork. Pour coffee liqueur over
the cake and allow it to soak in. Wrap the cake with plastic and
refrigerate for at least 3 hours. Slice the cake into 1-inch thick
pieces.
LIne the bottom of a large glass trifle bowl with a single layer of cake.
Pour 1/4 of the fudge sauce over the cake, top with 1/4 of the candy bar
bits then 1/3 of the whipped cream. Repeat layering 2 more times ending
with fudge sauce and candy bits. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
Assemble the trifle shortly before serving or it will get soggy.
To make the sauce: Melt the German chocolate with the butter in a
saucepan over very low heat. Stir in the powdered sugar, alternating with
evaporated milk and blending well. Stirring constantly, bring the mixture
to a simmer over medium heat. Simmer until the mixture becomes thick and
creamy, about 8 minutes. Stir in the vanilla.

Notes

NOTES : Duncan Hines Brownie Mix may be substituted for cake mix. I think it is really better.
1 (16 oz.) jar Fudge Sauce may be substituted for the homemade Hot
Fudge Sauce.
Chocolate covered Heath Bar Bits may be subsitiuted for the candy
bars.
Cool Whip may be substituted for the whipping cream.
