CARAMEL CAKE

CARAMEL CAKE

Pretty simple recipe

Bake a white cake

Poke holes in it

Pour caramel sauce

Top with creme cheese icing

We all knew there was LOTS of sugar in it

Yet you really can't "taste" all the sugar

My brother and his wife are REALLY enjoying the cake

INGREDIENTS

1 white cake mix

2 cups caramel sauce

Cream Cheese Frosting

Frosting

8 ounces cream cheese, room temperature

½ cup butter, room temperature

1½ teaspoons vanilla

4 cups powdered sugar

Directions

Prepare and bake the cake as per the direction on the box.

Once the cake is done, remove it from the oven and immediately poke holes into the top of the warm cake, about 1- inch apart. Pour the 1/2 the caramel on top of the cake and allow the cake to sit until it has cooled completely.

Frosting

In the bowl of your stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment mix the cream cheese and butter together on medium speed until smooth. Turn mixer to low and add in the vanilla and powdered sugar until combined.

Turn mixer back up to medium and mix for 1-2 minutes until smooth and creamy.

When the cake is cooled spread the cream cheese frosting on top. Swirl the remaining caramel on top of the frosting.

Here is the video on how I did the cake.  As you can see, I didn't 100% follow the instructions.  I took liberties with the directions and it still came out GREAT.
