No wonder this is a bake sale winner! Devil’s food cake sandwiches caramel, pecans and, yes, more chocolate in the middle. Yum.

Wow! Only one word needed to describe this wonderful cake. I used dark chocolate chips sprinkled in the center, and just drizzled alittle caramel on top with the chopped nuts. Not too sweet either. Very, very good. Will be making it many more times. :-D
