- 6 ounces caramel ice cream topping
- 3 bars chocolate covered toffee, chopped

Directions
Bake cake according to package directions for a 9x13 inch pan. Let cake cool for 5 minutes. With the back of a wooden spoon, poke holes all around the cake making sure not to go through to the bottom. Heat up the carmel and pour it over the cake, then pour the sweetened condensed milk over it as well. then sprinkle the crushed chocolate toffee bars across the entire cake while still warm. Let cake cool completely, then top with whipped topping. Decorate the top of the cake with some more chocolate toffee bar chunks and the carmel/condensed milk topping. Refrigerate and serve right from the pan!
