- 18.25 oz box of Devils Food Cake Mix
- 3 eggs
- 1 1/4 cup water
- 1/3 cup vegetable oil
- 1 cup milk chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup caramel sauce (I used Smuckers)
- 1/2 cup chocolate sauce (I used Hersheys)
- 1 (8 oz.) package cream cheese
- 1 cup cool whip
- 5 cups powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup melted milk chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup mini semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 3/4 cup melted caramel (I used Caramel bits by the chocolate chips)

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- In a large bowl, combine cake mix, eggs, water and vegetable oil until well-combined.
- Once the batter is fully mixed, add the 1 cup of chocolate chips.
- Spray a 9x13 pan with non-stick cooking spray, and spread batter evenly about in pan.
- Bake for about 25-30 minutes or until the cake is cooked all the way through but not burned.
- Once the cake is done cooking, take out and let cool for about 1 hour.
- Once the cake has cooled, poke holes in the cake about every 1-2 inches (I used the round end of a bottom wooden spoon).
- Pour the chocolate and caramel sauce over the holes, and on top of the cake.
- Refrigerate for about 1 hour
- In a separate bowl, combine cream cheese, cool whip, powdered sugar, and vanilla with a hand mixer, until it is a smooth creamy texture.
- Pour the cream cheese mixture over the cake and spread evenly.
- Drizzle the melted caramel and chocolate over the frosting.
