    Easiest Chocolate Caramel Cake Ever!

    This cake goes by various names, but I think it should just be called "easiest chocolate caramel cake ever."  Now, this is a weekend indulgence more than an Amish recipe. Although, I'll say it again, there are plenty of Amish cooks that do use some boxed cake mix in a pinch.  More often than not, cakes will be scratch-made, but Dairy Queen ice cream cakes are popular among the Amish to celebrate birthdays and if you've got a housefull of kids and no time, a box cake or recipe that contains a boxed cake component will be used on occasion.  Our friend Jessica made this particular cake. I have seen similar concoctions at Amish and Plain potlucks, they really are irresistible in a pinch!

      I have been making this cake for my family for years. We call it YUM YUM cake. I mix the caramel sauce and the sweetened milk together and after the cake is done I pour this over the cake, turn the oven off and put the cake back in the oven until the sauce is melted into the cake. I also sprinkle a bag of Heath bits over the the Cool Whip. It's amazing!
