Ingredients

    Grease and lightly flour 13" x 9" cake pan.

    Mix cake as directed on package.
  4. 4
    Bake the cake about 35 minutes or until it tests done.
  5. 5
    As soon as it comes out of the oven, poke holes all over it with a fork (I actually use a small diameter chop stick) and pour sweetened condensed milk evenly over the cake, followed by caramel sauce (microwaved about one minute until warm and easily pourable - I use only about 10 oz of the jar).

    Shortly before serving, spread whipped topping over cake and sprinkle with crushed Heath bars (or bits).
  8. 8

    READ THE WHOLE RECIPE. It needs to go in the fridge overnight. It was really good, but the milk and caramel pooled around the edges and the middle was just plain cake (which is ok... cake is good). Next time I will cut some of the cake off the top in the middle to make flat-- then it will soak in evenly.

    I sure can vouch for this one. I've made this at least a dozen times in the past two years and have always recieved many compliments! This was known to me as the "better than sex" cake, and most people blushingly agree when they taste it that it's title lives up to it's name!

    This cake was absolutely rich and decadent!! I used a fudge cake mix, caramel butterscotch ice cream topping and extra creamy whipped topping and it turned out marvelous! My brother in law who doesn't eat many sweets, especially chocolate, gave me a container and told me to "put as much as you can in it" for him to take home! Everyone adored this cake.
