CHOCOLATE CAKE WITH GANACHE

1 box Devil's Food Cake mix (Pillsbury Plus recommended)
1/4 cup heavy cream
1 lb. chocolate chips
3 cups toffee pieces
1 ounce cocoa powder

Follow directions on the box for baking the cake. To make ganache: Heat heavy cream just to a boil and then remove from head. Add in chocolate chips and whisk until well blended and all chips have melted. Once cake is cool, cut in half lengthwise. Place 6 ounces of ganache on each cake layer and spread evenly. Sprinkle each with 1 cup toffee pieces. Flip top layer onto bottom layer and press gently. Spread remaining ganache over and around cake. Dust top of cake with cocoa powder.
