Turtle Cake

This is another recipe from Viv at heartspunimagery.typepad.com, so I can't take the credit. We were having a potluck at work tonight and I decided at the last minute to make this cake only because Stephen had to run to the store so I had him pick up the caramels. It was a HUGE HIT!! For step by step pictures, visit Viviana's site.

1 box German Chocolate Cake mix
1 pkg (14 oz.) caramels
3/4 stick of margarine/butter
small can of evaporated milk
chopped pecans
chocolate chips

Make the cake as directed and pour half of the mix in a 13x9 inch pan and bake at 350 for 15 minutes. While that is in the oven, melt the caramels, butter and evaporated milk over low heat. Pour caramel over the cooked cake, along with other half of the mix. Top with chocolate chips and pecans and put back in the oven for 30 minutes. I suggest eating this while it's still warm.....VERY GOOD!
