- Preheat and Prepare: Preheat your oven to 350°F (or 325°F for dark or non-stick pans). Grease or spray the bottom of a 13″ x 9″ skillet.
- Mix the Batter: Prepare the cake batter according to the directions on the box. Pour half of the mixture into the skillet. Bake for 22 minutes, then refrigerate the remaining mixture.
- Prepare the Caramel: In a 1-quart saucepan, heat the caramel and evaporated milk over medium heat, stirring frequently until the caramel is melted. Stir in the chopped pecans.
- Layer and Bake: Pour the caramel mixture over the warm cake in the skillet. Sprinkle with the semi-sweet chocolate chips. Spread the remaining cake batter mixture on top. Bake for 25 to 28 minutes or until the cake springs back when lightly touched.
- Cool and Serve: Run a knife around the sides of the pan to loosen the cake. Allow it to cool for at least 30 minutes. Serve with your favorite ice cream and sprinkle with additional toppings and chopped pecans. Store the leftovers loosely covered.
