Instructions

Mix the cake mix according to package directions then add 1/2 cup of the evaporated milk and the butter using mixer.

Pour 1/2 of the cake mixture or about 2 1/2 cups into a 9 x 13 baking pan sprayed with cooking spray. Bake this in a preheated 350 degree oven for 10 minutes.

While the cake is baking melt the caramels along with the other 1/2 cup of evaporated milk either on top of the stove or in the microwave. It takes about 2 1/2 to 3 minutes to melt in the microwave and take out every minute and stir.

Pour the melted caramels over the cooked cake and sprinkle on chocolate chips and nuts. Pour the rest of the cake mix on top of the caramels, chips and nuts and put back in oven for 35 more minutes.
