Ok...my aunt made this for Christmas and it was AWESOME! She made the real fat version, which, I'll list, but everything can be substituted for light or fat free.

1 pkg chocalote cake mix
1/2 to 1 c kahlua
2 pkgs dark chocolate pudding
6 heath or skor bars (frozen)
1 lg or 2 sm Cool whip

Mix cake and bake according to directions. Then, layer 1/2 cake, 1/2 kahlua, 1/2 pudding, 1/2 cool whip, break up 3 candy bar. Put into a glass bowl. Repeat for 2nd layer.

Ok...in my world, a little too fancy. So,what I do, is make the cake, cut it into pieces for the bottom layer, pile on the kahlua, pudding, cool whip, then put some more cake chunks, and more of the good stuff. I only put the candy bars sprinkled on top. you can cut down on cals that way too..you don't need all 6 of them.

Enjoy! It's yummy...and looking messy makes it look even yummier!

    I don't have the info for that. I'm sure you could take all the cals from the products used, add them up, and then divide by how ever many servings you are going to make. Sorry I don't have that info....and I don't have the ingredients at home either, so I can't add it up for you.
