Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 box box chocolate cake mix
- 0.5 cup vegetable oil
- 1 cup water
- 3 large eggs
- 14 ounces sweetened condensed milk
- 0.75 cup caramel sauce
- 8 ounces frozen whipped topping, thawed
- 4 bars chocolate-covered toffee candy bars (e.g., Heath bars), crushed
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
In a large mixing bowl, prepare the chocolate cake batter according to the instructions on the box, combining the cake mix with vegetable oil, water, and eggs. Mix until smooth.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and spread it evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool for 10-15 minutes. Using the handle of a wooden spoon, poke holes across the surface of the cake about 1 inch apart.
Pour the sweetened condensed milk evenly over the cake, letting it seep into the holes. Follow this with the caramel sauce, spreading it evenly to cover the surface.
Let the cake cool completely at room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld.
Once chilled, spread the thawed whipped topping evenly over the cake.
Sprinkle the crushed candy bars generously over the top of the whipped topping.
Serve chilled and enjoy immediately. Refrigerate any leftovers for up to 3 days.
