what is the size to use for the milky way bars. There are many different sizes. Which one is the correct size to use for this cake and frosting?

*I always double the icing recipe for a richer, sweeter cake and have never had any complaints! Try warming a piece up in the microwave for about 20 seconds-it's incredible! [I posted this recipe.]
