This is a recipe that's been around a while. It was really popular when I was in high school if that tells you anything! I haven't made them for awhile, because they aren't especially healthy. :)
However - I made them while Andy was home. When he tried them, his exact words were - "where have these been all my life?" Yes - they are really good!
Chocolate Caramel Squares
14 ounce package caramels
1/3 cup evaporated milk
1 german chocolate cake mix
1 tablespoon water
3/4 cup softened butter
6 ounces chocolate chips
Combine caramels and milk; microwave, stirring occasionally until melted and set aside.
Combine remaining ingredients except chocolate chips. Stir together until dough is crumbly, but holds together. Press half of dough into greased 9x13 pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 6 minutes. Sprinkle chocolate chips over crust. Spread melted caramel over all. Sprinkle reserved dough over all. Bake 15-20 minutes at 350 degrees. Cool completely and enjoy!
