Yield: 10
Calories: 595cal
Cost: $15
Materials
- 1 Red Velvet Cake Mix I used Betty Crocker's with pudding in the mix
- 4 tbsp. butter unsalted - softened
- ⅔ cup evaporated milk divided
- 12 oz. chocolate chips
- 11 oz. caramel bits
- ⅓ cup evaporated milk
- 1 cup pecan halves or pieces
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees
- In a large bowl, add the entire box of cake mix, plus the softened butter and 2/3 cup of the milk
- Mix well
- You can grease a 9x13 baking pan or use parchment paper to line it. Either way, pour about 1/2 of the Red Velvet mixture into the pan
- Bake that for about 10 minutes
- While that is baking, grab a saucepan and over medium to med/high heat, add the 1/3 cup of milk and the caramels. Stir often while the caramels melt, then when the caramel is all mixed into the milk and smooth, remove from heat
- Pull the cake out of the oven
- To the warm cake add the caramel mixture, chocolate chips, and pecans
- Spread the remaining cake mix over everything
- Bake for an additional 18 to 20 minutes
- The cake mix will most likely still be a fudge brownie consistency and moist when done.
- Allow to cool or serve up warm with ice cream and more caramel
