Ingredients

  • 1 box chocolate cake mix
  • 12 oz caramel syrup
  • 16 oz chocolate frosting
  • 1 cup pecans chopped
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Bake cake according to package directions. Remove from oven and allow to cool for about 10 minutes.
  2. When cake is cooled poke holes in the top of the cake with the handle of a wooden spoon.
  3. Pour one cup of caramel syrup over the top of the cake. Spread the caramel out with a knife or rubber spatula to make sure it gets in all the holes.
  4. Put cake in the refrigerator for an hour so the syrup can absorb into the cake.
  5. Frost cake with chocolate frosting then sprinkle pecans and chocolate chips over the top. Drizzle on more syrup.
  6. Store covered in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
