Chocolate Toffee Caramel Bars

A friend posted this recipe on Facebook today and it sounded absolutely delicious. Plus, I'm always up for new "semi-homemade" recipes.

• 1 pkg of yellow cake mix (the one that has pudding in it)
• 1/3 cup of oil
• 2 eggs
• 1-12oz pkg of choc. chips
• 1 cup of toffee bits
• 1 cup of vanilla chips
• 1/2 cup of butter
• 32 caramels
• 1-14 oz can of sweetened condensed milk

Directions

1. Heat oven to 350. Line a 9 x 13 pan with foil then spray with non-stick spray. 
2. In bowl combine cake mix, oil and eggs. Stir in chocolate chips, vanilla chips and toffee bits (mix will be thick). 
3. Press 1/2 the mix into the bottom of the foil lined pan. Bake for 10 min. 
4. While baking, in a small sauce pan combine butter, caramels and sweetened condensed milk. Stir and melt until smooth. Remove partially baked crust. Slowly pour hot caramel mixture over baked crust. 
5. Crumble remaining cake mix over caramels. Return to oven and bake for an additional 25 min. until golden brown. Cool on counter for 20 min. 
6. Refrigerate a couple of hours for caramel to harden a little and cut into bars. ~Enjoy~
