Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 box Devil’s Food Chocolate Cake Mix
  • 1 14-ounce can sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 16-ounce jar caramel sauce
  • 1 8-ounce tub Cool Whip
  • 4 Heath bars, chopped

Equipment

  • 9x13-inch baking pan
  • Mixing Bowl
  • Electric mixer
  • Spatula
  • Measuring cups and spoons

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a mixing bowl, prepare the Devil’s Food Chocolate Cake mix according to the package instructions.
  2. Pour the batter into a greased 9x13 inch baking pan. Bake for about 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Allow to cool completely.
  3. Once the cake is cool, poke holes all over the top using a wooden spoon handle or skewer.
  4. Pour the sweetened condensed milk over the cake, letting it soak into the holes. Allow it to sit for a few minutes.
  5. Drizzle caramel sauce generously over the top of the cake.
  6. Spread Cool Whip over the caramel layer and sprinkle chopped Heath bars on top.
  7. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.

Notes
