Turtle Bars
A fudgy brownie that is filled with smooth, creamy caramel. You'd never know these are made with boxed chocolate cake mix!
Servings: 1 9x13 pan
Ingredients
- 11 oz. bag caramels
- ⅔ cup evaporated milk divided
- 1 box chocolate cake mix
- ¾ cup butter melted
- 1 cup nuts chopped
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Place caramels and ⅓ cup evaporated milk in a small saucepan & melt over medium heat, stirring often.
- In a mixing bowl combine cake mix, ⅓ cup evaporated milk, butter and nuts. Pat down half of batter into bottom of 9x13 pan. Bake for 5 minutes.
- Remove pan from oven and sprinkle chocolate chips over the bottom crust. Pour melted caramels over chocolate chips.
- Dab remaining batter on top. It's okay to see some of the caramel and chocolate chips poking through.
- Bake for 20 minutes. Allow to cool completely before cutting into squares.
Notes
- Any chocolate cake mix will work
- Caramels could also be melted with evaporated milk in the microwave. Place them in a microwave safe bowl and melt in one minute intervals, stirring in between, until smooth
- For nuts, I like to use either pecans or walnuts
