Butterfinger Cake

We were blessed to celebrate Grandma M's 87th birthday this year!  We had a belated birthday party for her when my uncle and aunt came up from Kentucky.  Anyway, birthday parties need birthday cake, right?  Even though this might not be the most traditional birthday cake, it worked well and tasted delicious.  I've also taken this cake to many other places, and it's always a hit.  Thanks to Grandma V for another great recipe!

Mix eggs, cake mix, pudding mix, and water to make the cake.
Bake at 350 degrees for 25-30 minutes.
When cool, mix powdered sugar, butter, and Cool Whip.  Frost.
What happened to the purple hammer my dad gave me for Christmas? It gets used most often for "cooking" purposes than to pound nails!
Happy 87th Birthday, Grandma M!  Love you!
