Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 1 box Chocolate Cake Mix with ingredients listed at the back
  • 2 12 oz jar caramel ice cream topping divided
  • 1 can of chocolate frosting
  • 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips
  • 1-1 1/2 cups chopped pecans

Method
 

  1. Follow the package instructions to bake your cake.
  2. Allow to cool for 10 minutes, then use the end of a wooden spoon to poke holes around the cake. Spread 1 jar of caramel sauce on top of the cake. Use a spatula to make holes. Allow to cool completely.
  3. Mix the chocolate frosting into a bowl. Whip for a few minutes.
  4. Spread the spread on top of the cooled cake.
  5. Sprinkle with pecans and chocolate chips, then drizzle with caramel topping. I used a piping bag to do this.
