 and Chopped Mini Snickers Candy Bars
Heavenly~





Autumn Swirl Cake with Maple Bacon Frosting
was perfect for Thanksgiving Dinner.
We always have pumpkin and cherry pie.

This year when I saw that Duncan Hines had a
{New} Autumn Velvets Cake Mix....
I knew I was going to make this cake.



Betty Crocker had a
{New} Limited Edition Frosting
out at the same time called:
Maple Bacon Frosting.
I knew the minute I saw this frosting,
I was going to give it a try!

At first,
I wasn't sure what to expect with this frosting but
this frosting is awesome!
It has a wonderful maple flavor and
the bacon flavored sprinkles were very subtle..
giving the finished cake a light smoky flavor.

I decided to make Duncan Hines
Autumn Velvet cake mix and frost the cake with
Betty Crockers Maple Bacon Frosting.
Topping the whole frosted cake with
chopped Snickers Candy Bars was
the cherry on top!
