I could not find the suggested cake mix and therefore used the golden butter mix. They were delicious, but I DEFINITELY suggest to use Pam or something on the dish or you will not get them out. I topped with crushed Pecans and it really added to the taste. One more suggestion is to use a little more than half the dough on the bottom. The caramel seemed to be absored too much and it was as if there was no crust (adding to the stickiness). Even though they were messy and very sweet, they were eaten quickly and were requested again!

I loved this recipe, though I did make some changes. I didn't have caramel on hand, so i used melted butterscotch chips. I just got them melted and spread them across the first layer of cake. It tastes great! I also used a smaller pan so the bars are thicker and pretty sturdy. I will have to try the caramel next time. Overall, I recommend it!

These bars are delish and never last long wherever I bring them! Super easy to make too! I usually only use about 3/4 of the caramel called for in the recipe. This is probably why I don't have a problem with them being messy. When pressing the first layer in the pan allow a slight lip on the edges so the caramel will not be directly touching your pan. Clean up will be no problem. The Butter Pecan cake mix is hard to find. When in a pinch I use Butter Golden Cake mix and it is delicious still. I will have to try the fudge mix.

My 5 year old requested these for his birthday dessert this year b/c he loved them so much. I don't make them with carmel topping since that's not something I usually have on hand. Instead, I double the frosting recipe I put on Apple Cake, since this is a sweet "caramelly" vanilla frosting. I think this also is a little thicker than caramel topping, so they're not as messy.

I just loved this one! The only problem I had was finding the cake mix so I used banana cake mix instead. What a great taste!

This bars were a messy type because of the caramel. You have to really cool them down before cutting them. They were really sweet, too sweet and tasted good. They are just too sticky.

The bars were very easy and quick to make. I had no trouble with the bars sticking to the pan. Although they are a little messy, but that''s to be expected with using carmel. Everyone that tried them said they were good, but very sweet.

I made these and have to say not really what i expected.. They were thin, I might try doubling it and see if they turn out any better. They do have a pretty good taste though. I think choclate cake mix would be great....

I have made this recipe twice and both times had no success. Each time, the bars stuck to the pan and could not be removed. Clean up meant soaking the pans in hot water over night and scrubbing and scraping in the morning. The flavor was good though and what I did manage to get out of the pan was put on top of vanilla ice cream.

I found these bars way too sweet. They were on the floppy side. A bit too sloppy. However, my dad loved them.
