Caramel cake
OOOOHHH this is so good and so simple!!! I haven't got to post on this blog much because I have been so busy with the garden. Now I will have more time to try out new recipes.
Ingredients:
1 Box Yellow Cake Mix
2 1/2 Cups Sugar
2 Sticks Butter (Marg.)
1 Can Evaporated Milk
Directions:
Cook yellow cake mix until light brown. Cook 2 1/2 cups sugar, 2 sticks butter, and 1 can evaporated milk until thickens. Put holes in cake and cover cake with caramel mix.
For some reason, my caramel didn't get really thick, so you can't even see it on the cake, but let me tell you, you can taste it! This cake is easy & excellent!
