Chewy Soft Yellow Cake Squares with Snickers Bars

My husband loves Snicker bars, every year during Halloween he gets an excuse to buy bags and bags of these candy (needless to say more than we need for our neighborhood trick or treating kids)

This time due to crummy weather we had lot of left over bags of these candies and I was trying to find a recipe that would breakdown the sweetness of these candies and create something new.

I started looking and found this recipe for easy-one-bowl-snickers-cake-bars. I liked it and started experimenting with my imagination to modify it and came up with this delicious version.

Ingredients:

• 1  package yellow cake mix
