Ingredients
Scale
- 1 box (15.25 ounces) chocolate cake mix
- 1 can (14 ounces) sweetened condensed milk
- 1 cup caramel topping or sauce
- 1 bag (12 ounces) semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup chopped pecans or walnuts (optional)
- 1 cup boiling water
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Lightly grease a 9×13 inch baking dish.
- Spread the dry chocolate cake mix evenly over the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Do not mix the cake mix.
- Slowly drizzle the entire can of sweetened condensed milk over the dry cake mix layer.
- Pour the caramel topping evenly over the condensed milk layer.
- Sprinkle the chocolate chips over the caramel layer. If using nuts, sprinkle them on top now.
- Carefully pour 1 cup of boiling water over the entire surface of the ingredients. Do not stir.
- Bake for 45 to 55 minutes, or until the edges are set and a toothpick inserted near the center comes out mostly clean.
- Let the cake cool slightly before serving.
Notes
- Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for extra richness.
- For a slightly different texture, you can substitute the boiling water with 1 cup of brewed hot coffee.
- If you prefer a sweeter topping, use a thicker caramel sauce.
