Ingredients
- 15.25 ounces German Chocolate Cake Mix (1 box)
- ¾ cup butter melted
- 1 cup milk divided
- 11 ounces soft caramels
- 1 cup sweetened coconut flakes
- 1 cup pecans chopped
- 1 ½ cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a 9-inch x 13-inch cake pan with non-stick spray and line with parchment paper. (The paper makes it easy to lift the bars out later.)
- Add the melted butter, 1/2 cup milk, and cake mix to a large mixing bowl. Stir until combined. (The batter will be sticky.) Use a rubber spatula to transfer the batter to the prepared baking pan and spread it into an even layer.
- Bake for 15 minutes.
- While the crust is baking, place all of the caramels into a microwave-safe bowl and pour in the remaining 1/2 cup of milk. Heat in 1-minute increments, stirring after each heating until smooth and fully melted (about 2.5 minutes).
- Take the baking pan out of the oven. Pour the caramel evenly over the chocolate cookie crust. Next, sprinkle the coconut, pecans, and chocolate chips evenly over the caramel.
- Bake for another 15 minutes.
- Remove the bars from the oven and cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.
- Once cooled, use the parchment paper to lift the bars from the pan. Use a sharp knife to cut the block into 16 bars. Store any leftovers in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
