Turtle Cake

1 pkg. (2-layer size) German Chocolate Cake Mix
1 stick margarine
1 pkg. (14 oz.) caramels
1 can (14 oz.) sweetened condensed milk
1 pkg. (6 oz.) chocolate chips
2 cups chopped nuts (optional)

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease and flour a 13x9-inch pan. Make cake mix as directed on package. Pour half of the cake batter into the pan and bake 15 minutes.

While baking, melt caramels, butter and milk together over low heat in saucepan. Pour over cake when removed from oven (do not spread all the way to edges). Sprinkle chocolate chips and nuts (if desired) over caramel mixture. Bake 30 minutes. Cool well before cutting.

User Reviews:

The directions for the cake only says what to do with 1/2 of the cake batter. Does that mean the recipe only calls for 1/2 of the batter or has part of the directions been left out? Then again, I could have not read everything correctly. Will you please clear this up for me? Thank you so much!!!!
