Expert Tips

The cake may stick to the wooden spoon handle while you’re using it to make the holes, so occasionally wipe off the handle.

The caramel topping will be easier to drizzle if it has been kept at room temperature. If refrigerated, spoon caramel into microwavable bowl; microwave uncovered on High about 15 seconds.

Instead of the toffee bits or chips, coarsely chop 5 bars (1.4 oz each) chocolate-covered English toffee candy, and sprinkle on top of the cake.

I made this for co-workers birthdays and it was a hit. I will know I can make a smaller cake next time due to the richness of this dessert, but I will be making it again.

This cake is always a hit when made. I feel so bad sometimes when I want to slave in the kitchen for half the day to make a culinary masterpiece, but instead I cut corners and make this cake. OF course, I quickly get over it when I have the rest of the day before the party to goof around! :oD I have used caramel and butterscotch to drizzle, and both are awesome! If it's a party where do don't know folks well, stick with caramel because it seems safer than the acquired taste of butterscotch. Toffee chips top this decadent dessert and wow! Such a perfect topping to an already wonderful dessert.
