BeTtEr ThAn AnYtHiNg CaKe!

I seem to be on a sweet treat kick lately. I recently made this yummy, SUPER easy dessert for a nurse I was orienting for her last day on orientation, before I set her loose on her own as a new grad J. I needed something super easy to make because I had planned on making it after work to take the next day. Usually when I work, I get home about 8pm and have to be up @5:40 am to get ready for work. I really wanted to have something special for her, but I really wanted sleep too. So I turned to my trusty friend Pinterest to search for an easy dessert. I had pinned this yummy looking treat a few days earlier, and after checking it out, decided it was the one to make. It turned out to be a fabulously yummy choice. It only lasted about an hour or so after I set it out. I swear you put food in front of nurses and we inhale J We eat what we can, when we can, otherwise it may be nothing at all. We don’t hold any prisoners, if it’s there, then it’s free game.

Better Than Anything Cake

Recipe via http://www.chef-in-training.com/2012/06/better-than-anything-cake/

Ingredients

•1 box chocolate cake mix and any ingredients it requires
•1 (14 oz) can sweetened condensed milk
•1 (8 oz) jar caramel topping
•1 (8 oz) container cool whip thawed to room temp
•3 Heath Candy Bars chopped

Instructions

 1.Bake cake according to directions in a 9x13 pan.

 2.Let cake cool for about 5 minutes.

 3.Poke holes in cake with the handle end of a wooden spoon.

 4.While cake is still warm, slowly pour over sweetened condensed milk over the top   making sure some gets in all the holes of the cake.

5.Next drizzle the caramel topping evenly over the cake slowly, making sure some gets in all the holes as well.

6.Spread cool whip over the top evenly.

7.Sprinkle with Heath Candy bar pieces.

8.Store in fridge until ready to eat. Store any leftovers in fridge.

 I actually didn’t have heath bars, so I used chocolate chips and heath toffee bit pieces in place of the actual crushed bars. I was also thinking of all the combos you could come up with, crushed oreos, crushing graham crackers and adding marshmallow fluff to the whipped cream. The possibilities are endless.

Enjoy!
