Gooey Caramel Cake
With toffee pieces and gooey caramel this cake tastes incredible!
Ingredients
- 1 boxed yellow cake mix
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup water
- 1/3 cup vegetable oil
- 3 eggs
- 8 ounce bag milk chocolate coated toffee bits
- 13.4 ounce dulce de leche (caramelized sweetened condensed milk)
- whipped cream (I used cool whip)
- caramel topping (I used ice cream topping)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Spray bottom and side of a 13 x 9 -inch pan with baking spray with flour.
- Beat cake mix, flour, water, oil and eggs on low 30 seconds.
- Beat on medium speed 2 minutes, scraping bowl occasionally.
- Stir in 1/2 cup of the toffee bits.
- Pour into pan.
- Reserve 1/2 cup dulce de leche.
- Spoon remaining dulce de leche by the teaspoonful onto batter.
- Bake 30 to 40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in center come out clean.
- Drop reserved dulce de leche by the spoonful over top of cake and spread evenly.
- Sprinkle with remaining toffee bits. (NOTE: I reserved some of the toffee bits to sprinkle on each individual serving)
- Cool about 1 hour before serving.
- Top each serving with whipped cream and caramel topping.
Notes
NOTE: If you can't find chocolate covered toffee bits you can also use crushed chocolate-covered English toffee candy bars.
