I made this recipe exactly as the recipe stated and my cake was perfect. I would not change a thing. I cut slits like the recipe called for and in my opinion that was the best way to go. I hate soggy cake and if you put holes in the cake that is what you will get. I will make this cake many, many more times!

This is one delicious cake! So simple to make, and always elicits the oohs and aahs. I made it for my sister's birthday and everyone raved on and on about it. I did do mine a bit differently, though. I baked a Duncan Hines Devil's Food cake in a 9x13 glass dish. I then omitted the sweetened condensed milk (don't care for it) and instead combined about 16 ounces (a jar and a half) of Smucker's hot fudge topping along with 1/2 a cup of 2% milk in a pan and warmed it on the stove top for easier spreading. I took the cake out of the oven and immediately poked holes all over it with a chopstick. I then poured the hot fudge/milk mixture from the pan all across the cake, spreading it with a spatula to assure even coating. While it was still hot, I sprinkled bits of crushed Hershey's toffee and almond Symphony candy bar over the hot fudge topping. I let it cool awhile on a wire rack, then refrigerated it for an hour or so. When it was cooled off, I frosted it with a tub and a half of Extra Creamy Cool Whip (tastes like homemade whipped cream) and placed the remaining half of the tub of Cool Whip into a pastry bag fitted with a star tip, and proceeded to make a shell border around the cake. Afterward, I topped the frosted cake with the remaining crushed candy bar and popped it into the fridge for several hours. It looked really special and people thought I fussed....but it was really simple. I will be asked to make this time and again from now on!

Oh my gosh! This was soooo yummy. I'm making one for a friend and another as a birthday cake for a co-worker. I used 2 6oz caramel toppings and 5 candy bars just for the extra goo. Please try this. You won't regret it!

This is a really good cake.I use the Heath bar crumbles you get in your baking isle at the store.Down here we call it Heath Bar Cake.I don't put slits in the cake,cause when you put the carmel on while it's still hot it will seep through the cake.You also won't end up with it all at the bottom of the cake.Please add the cool whip to it.It really compliments the cake well.

It was so yummy and super easy to make. My husband does not like chocolate cake but really enjoyed this... I did heat the carmel and milk just on a really low heat and glad I did. I just didn't use the whole mixture over cake; afraid that the cake would be too wet.

Everybody loved it. I did follow other reviewers' suggestions and never heated caramel or milk, just straight from the can. Worked great.

I'm really surprised that I didn't love this cake because I have a huge sweet tooth. I followed the recipe, except I made my own whip cream. I thought it was way too sweet. It almost made me sick, that's how overly sweet it was. The guys at work ate gobbled it up, so that's something but I doubt I'll make it again.

Great cake! Followed tips from other reviews. Did not heat caramel and milk together, nor mix together. Used whole jar of caramel. Will make again soon!

This is one of the best desserts ever. So simple, and so decadent. VERY rich, so small pieces are fine though. Mmmmm, I'm going to have to go make this again! Now!

the name says it all!!! I thought it would be overly sweet but it wasn't. Very easy to put together you could even add more/less carmel & candy if you please.

This is a great dessert!! Used one can Low fat Sweetened condensed milk(Canadian can=a little over 10 oz), sugar free caramel topping (I just combined the two and stirred), toffee bits, mini chipits, and fat free whipped topping. Wow!! So good!! Very moist, next time, there will be a next time, I will reduce the number of eggs in the cake when I make it. Thanks for sharing your recipe!!

This is an awsome recipe but I DID make changes, MOSTLY because the grocer I went to didnt have heath bars, or chocolate bars with toffee. But the base of this recipe is so awsome. I have made it several times over, and each time within no time flat there is no cake left. These are the changes I made. This is a wonderful recipe, but i kind of took off with it hehe: I used double chocolate cake mix, the whole can of sweetened condensed milk, and instead of candy bars (because the grocer didnt have the right ones), I used chocolate sauce and toffee chips, Fat Free Coolwhip, and to grease the pan I used Coconut Oil (yeah i know its bad for you). After baking the cake and using a wooden spoon handle to poke the holes in several places, I put in a couple toffee chips in each hole, added 1/2 the can of milk, a small drizzle of chocolate, another couple toffee chips, and the rest of the can of milk. drizzled chocolate in a zig-zag over the entire cake, and then let it cool for an hour. Once the cake was cooled I used the coolwhip as the topping, then drizzled more chocolate and then sprinkled toffee over the entire thing. My mother's husband kind of stole the cake and ate the entire thing over night, and I have made this several times for my friends. It came out VERY rich, but VERY tasty and sweet, and everyone who has tasted this now requests this every single time I am to bring a cake. Sorry, didnt mean to over-take the recipe, because yours is TRUELY wonderful and VERRRRRRY go

In have made this cake many many times. There are a few things i do different. First the Heath bars you can find already crunched up in the baking aisles by the choc chips. I put some of the heath bar in my cake so it cooks with it. I made my holes alittle bigger so it goes in the cake & not on the side.

I didn't have a cake cover so mistakenly used Saran Wrap. The icing stuck to the plastic wrap even though it was loosly applied which altered the pretty appearance of the cake. Aside from my human error, though, a great tasting cake. Next time I'll add more chocolate/toffee bars (used three Skor bars this time).

This is such a deliciously decadent desert. To make it even easier, I whisk together the canned milk and carmel topping and pour it directly on the cake while it's still warm. It's wonderful. Thanks for sharing.
