Heath Bar Cake
When I was younger, my mom used to make this for no specific reason at all but it was always a treat!
Sometimes she’d make it when the weather was nice and we were going to grill out or just for dessert after dinner.
Other times we’d take it to my Aunt’s house for a family dinner. It was loved by all and there were never any leftovers!

I always use German Chocolate cake mix

Great variation!

I love this cake! I use a straw instead of a fork or skewer as a “poker”. It removes a tiny bit of the cake so the sweetened condensed milk/caramel mixture really soaks in good. I use Butterfinger instead of Heath bars too sometimes. Yum!

What a great tip! Glad you enjoyed!
