Ingredients
Scale
Cake
- 1 package devil’s food chocolate or German chocolate cake mix
Toppings and Fillings
- 1 (14 oz) can sweetened condensed milk
- 1 jar caramel topping (about 12-14 oz)
- 1 (8 oz) tub Cool Whip
- 4-5 Snickers bars (or Skor, Heath bar, or mini Reese’s), chopped
Instructions
- Bake the Cake: Prepare the chocolate cake mix according to the package instructions and bake it in a 9×13 inch pan until a toothpick comes out clean.
- Cool Slightly: Allow the cake to cool for about 5 minutes so it’s warm but not hot.
- Poke Holes: Use the handle of a wooden spoon to poke holes evenly all over the surface of the cake, which will help the toppings soak in.
- Pour Sweetened Condensed Milk: After the cake has cooled for about 30 minutes until warm, slowly pour the sweetened condensed milk over the cake, letting it seep into the holes for moistness.
- Add Caramel Topping: Drizzle the caramel sauce liberally over the cake, allowing it to blend with the condensed milk and soak through.
- Cool Completely: Let the cake cool completely at room temperature, or refrigerate it covered to speed up the process.
- Top with Cool Whip: Once cooled, spread the Cool Whip evenly over the top of the cake for a light, creamy layer.
- Decorate with Candy: Sprinkle the chopped Snickers bars (or your choice of candy bars) over the Cool Whip and drizzle additional caramel topping on top for an extra decadent touch.
- Serve and Enjoy: Slice and serve this rich, delicious dessert and enjoy every heavenly bite!
Notes
- Use chilled Cool Whip for easier spreading.
- You can substitute Snickers bars with Skor, Heath bar, or mini Reese’s for different flavor variations.
- For extra flair, sprinkle some chopped nuts or sea salt on top along with the caramel.
- Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- Make sure the cake is warm but not hot when pouring condensed milk to avoid the topping sinking too quickly.
