Caramel Cake

By mrsmortician

Ingredients

• 1 box Duncan Hines butter cake mix
• 4 eggs
• 1 stick butter
• 2/3 c water
• Caramel Icing
• 3 c. sugar
• 1 c. Pet milk (I use whatever evaporated milk I have)
• 1/4 t salt
• 1 t vanilla
• 1 stick butter

Preparation

Step 1

Follow package instructions for cake. Allow to cool.

In the top of double boiler, mix 2 ½. c of the sugar with the Pet milk. Add salt. Boil for 3 minutes, stirring the entire time. Remove from heat.

Pour ½. c sugar into black iron skillet (I use a hard anodized aluminum pan) and caramelize it. To carmelize is to melt the sugar over medium heat – stirring constantly until the syrup turn a golden brown. This can burn, so be careful!
