Preheat the oven to 350°F. Spray a 9 × 13-inch baking pan with nonstick cooking spray.

Pour ¼ cup of the melted butter into the prepared pan and tilt the pan to coat the bottom evenly. Sprinkle 1 cup of the milk chocolate chips evenly over the melted butter.

Sprinkle half of the cake mix evenly over the milk chocolate chips. Drizzle the caramel topping evenly over the cake mix. Sprinkle the pecans and the remaining 1 cup milk chocolate chips evenly over all. Sprinkle the remaining cake mix evenly over all.

Pour the evaporated milk evenly over all. Drizzle the remaining ½ cup butter evenly over the top.

Bake for 40 to 45 minutes or until the edges of the cake begin to pull away from the sides of the pan.

tips: Ice cream topping or syrup? While similar, those labeled “ice cream topping” are thicker than syrups. For the best results for this recipe, choose a thick ice cream topping. We prefer Mrs. Richardson’s brand Butterscotch Caramel topping as it gave the best results.

Substitute Nestle’s 9-ounce package Delightfulls (caramel-filled baking morsels) for the milk chocolate chips. Omit the caramel sauce and proceed as directed.

Serve this cake with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for an over-the-top dessert.

Do you prefer milk chocolate or would you choose dark chocolate or semisweet chocolate? You can substitute semisweet or dark chocolate chips for the milk chocolate chips in this recipe.
