For an even richer flavor, use salted caramel ice cream topping. If you don't have cooking spray with flour, you can grease the baking dish with butter or shortening and then dust it with flour. Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Indulge in the decadence of Holy Cow Cake, a symphony of chocolate, caramel, and toffee that will transport you to dessert paradise. This gooey, rich treat is perfect for celebrations or any occasion that calls for a truly unforgettable dessert.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray that contains flour. (5 minutes)
In a large bowl, beat together the German chocolate cake mix, water, eggs, and vegetable oil with an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth, about 2 minutes. Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish. (5 minutes)
Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean, about 34 to 38 minutes. (36 minutes)
Remove the cake from the oven. While the cake is still warm, use a straw or skewer to poke holes evenly across the surface. (2 minutes)
In a separate bowl, stir together the sweetened condensed milk and caramel topping until well combined. Pour this mixture evenly over the warm cake, allowing it to seep into the holes. (3 minutes)
Let the cake cool completely at room temperature, about 1 hour. (60 minutes)
Once the cake is completely cooled, spread the thawed whipped topping evenly over the surface. Sprinkle generously with English toffee baking bits. (5 minutes)
Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld together. (30 minutes)
For an even richer flavor, use salted caramel ice cream topping. If you don't have cooking spray with flour, you can grease the baking dish with butter or shortening and then dust it with flour. Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Dec 24, 2024The cake was a bit too sweet for my taste. Next time, I'll reduce the amount of caramel topping.
