List of Ingredients




1 package (18.25 ounces) devil’s food cake mix (plus ingredients to make cake)

1 tablespoon butter or margarine

4 squares (1 ounce each) semi-sweet chocolate for baking, coarsely chopped

1 jar (12 ounces) caramel ice cream topping, divided

1/2 cup pecan halves, coarsely chopped

Vanilla ice cream (optional)




Recipe



1. Preheat oven to 350ºF. Prepare cake mix according to package directions in Classic Batter Bowl, mixing batter by hand until smooth. Melt butter in Family (12-in.) Skillet over medium heat, tilting skillet to coat bottom. Gently pour batter over bottom of skillet, spreading evenly.



2. Bake, uncovered, 30-35 minutes or until Cake Tester inserted in center comes out clean. Using Oven Mitts, carefully remove skillet to Stackable Cooling Rack. Loosen edges of cake; carefully invert cake onto large, heat-safe serving plate.



3. Coarsely chop chocolate squares into small pieces. Place chocolate and half of the ice cream topping in Small Micro-Cooker®. Microwave, uncovered, on HIGH 30-60 seconds or until chocolate is melted and mixture is smooth. Carefully spread caramel and chocolate mixture over cake using Large Spreader.



4. Coarsely chop pecans using Food Chopper; sprinkle evenly over cake. Drizzle with remaining ice cream topping, if desired. Let stand until topping is set. Cut into wedges. Serve with vanilla ice cream, if desired.

Cook’s Tips: Chocolate will melt more quickly and evenly when chopped. Use the Chef’s Knife to coarsely chop the chocolate squares into smaller pieces before melting.
