Turtle Cake

For mother's day, I needed a dessert to take to my sister-in-laws. I decided on turtle cake, even though I hadn't made it before. Everyone loved it, so here is the recipe:

1 German chocolate cake mix (+ eggs & oil called for on box)
1 package of caramels (14-15 oz)
1 can evaporated milk
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 cup chopped pecans
Caramel ice cream topping

Prepare the cake mix according to the box directions. Pour 1/2 of the batter into a greased and floured 9x13 cake pan. Bake at 350 for about 20 minutes (or until toothpick inserted comes out clean). Melt caramels and evaporated milk over medium heat, about 10 minutes. Pour over warm cake. Sprinkle with chocolate chips and pecans. Top with remaining batter and bake another 15-20 minutes until done. Let cool and drizzle with caramel ice cream topping. Enjoy!
