Grammy's Snicker Cake

Ingredients

• 1 (18 ounce) box German chocolate cake mix

• 1/3 cup milk
• 1/2 cup butter

• 1 (14 ounce) package caramels
• 3/4 cup chocolate chips
• 1/2 cup salted peanuts

Directions

1. 1

   Mix cake mix per directions (you'll need oil, water and eggs; measurements depend on your cake mix).

2. 2

   Pour half the batter into a greased 9x13 pan and bake at 350 for 15 minutes.

3. 3

   Meanwhile, melt the caramels with the milk and butter in a sauce pan, careful not to let it boil and scorch. Remove from heat once melted.

4. 4

   Pour caramel mixture over baked cake. Sprinkle the chocolate chips and peanuts over the caramel mixture.

5. 5

   Cover with remaining batter. Lower temp to 250 and bake for 20 minutes, then bake at 350 for 10 minutes.

6. 6

   Let the cake cool before you try to cut it.

7. 7

   Note: I bought two small packages of caramels in the candy aisle and unwrapped them all before starting.

8. 8

   Note: I used more than the 1/2 cup of peanuts since I didn't think that was enough!
