Turtle Cake

By: Karleen Stevens

1 German chocolate cake mix
1 (14 oz.) pkg. caramels
1 can Eagle brand milk
¾ c. margarine
1 c. pecans
1 c. chocolate chips

Directions:
Unwrap all of the caramels and set them aside. Make the cake mix as directed on the package. Pour half of the cake mix into a greased and floured 9″ x 13″ cake pan. Set the remaining cake batter aside. Bake it at the recommended temperate on the cake mix box for 15-20 minutes or until it's done.
Meanwhile, melt the caramels, milk and margarine in a double boiler (it takes about 20 - 30 minutes). 
Remove the cake from oven when it's done and pour the caramel mixture evenly over the top. Sprinkle on the chocolate chips and pecans on top. Pour the remaining half of the cake batter on top.
Bake it for another 20 - 30 minutes more, or until it's done.

Optional:
Frost with chocolate frosting. This makes it very rich!
