Sift flour with soda and salt; set aside. Put half the butter in large mixer bowl. Beat until light. Add sugar and beat until mixture holds together. (There's to much sugar for this to really cream,but the smoother it is,the better). Beat in the vanilla. Turn off mixer. Combine the remaining butter with the Milky Way bars in a heavy saucepan. Stir constantly over low heat until mixture is completely melted and smooth, a thick liquid. Turn off heat. Beat eggs into the butter sugar mixture one at a time,then beat a scant 1/2 of the flour mixture. With mixer on, add all of the melted butter, Mikly Way blend as quickly as possible, and as close to the beaters as possible. When the candy is thoroughly blended in, add the remaining 1/2 of the flour, then the buttermilk. Turn batter into prepared pan and bake for 1 hour and 25 minutes; 55 minutes if using brownie pan, or until a tester comes out clean. Let cake cool in pan for 10 minutes, then turn it onto a rack.
