How to make it

  • Melt caramels, milk and margarine or butter in a saucepan and set aside, keeping it warm.
  • Prepare cake mix by using the instructions on the box.
  • Pour half of the cake mix into a buttered 9x13" cake pan and bake it for 15 minutes in a 350 oven.
  • Remove the cake from the oven and immediately pour the caramel mixture over the cake, spreading it evenly.
  • Spread the chocolate chips and pecans on top of the caramel.
  • Pour the remainder of the cake batter on top of the caramel mixture, sealing the edges with the cake batter.
  • Bake for another 25 to 30 minutes. Do not overbake.
  • If you would prefer, instead of spreading the chocolate chips and pecans on top of the caramel, you can spread them on top of the warm cake once you remove it from the oven. Either way works great. (I always toast my pecans.)

    I made this for a labor day treat and let me tell you it is WONDERFUL! It is creamy, moist and the filling in the middle is an unexpected surprise. I will make this again. My entire family loved it.

    Okay...........I should be able to figure this out but I have been known to fail miserably!! When and where do the pecan halves and chocolate chips come in? :-)

    Thanks!
