Description
A rich, decadent Chocolate Turtle Cake layered with sweet caramel and topped with whipped cream and pecans.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 box (15.25 oz) Devil’s Food chocolate cake mix
- 1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
- 1 jar (12 oz) caramel sundae topping
- 1 container (8 oz) whipped topping, thawed
- ½ cup chopped pecans
- ½ cup mini semi-sweet chocolate chips
- ⅓ cup salted caramel sauce (for drizzling)
Instructions
- Bake the Cake: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a large mixing bowl, prepare the cake mix according to package instructions. Pour the batter into a greased 9×13-inch baking pan and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean. Let cool for 10 minutes, then transfer to a cooling rack.
- Soak with Caramel: Once cool, poke holes in the top of the cake with a fork. In a bowl, combine sweetened condensed milk and caramel topping. Pour this mixture over the cake, allowing it to soak into the holes.
- Chill and Top: Refrigerate for at least 2 hours. Spread the whipped topping over the cake, then sprinkle with chopped pecans and chocolate chips.
- Serve: Drizzle with salted caramel sauce before serving. Cut into squares and enjoy!
