Cómo preparar Cream Cheese Turtle Cake
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 13x9x2-inch metal baking pan.
- Sprinkle 1/2 cup of the sliced almonds and 1/2 cup of the pecan halves evenly over the bottom of the prepared pan.
- In a large bowl, combine the cake mix, 1 1/4 cups water, 1/3 cup oil, and 3 large eggs.
- Beat with an electric mixer on low speed until just moistened, about 30 seconds.
- Increase speed to medium and beat for 2 minutes.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan.
- In a medium saucepan, melt 1/2 cup (1 stick) of softened butter over medium-low heat.
- Gradually whisk in 1 cup of powdered sugar until smooth.
- Stir in the softened cream cheese until well combined and smooth.
- Pour the cream cheese mixture in ribbons over the cake batter in the pan.
- Using a knife, gently swirl the cream cheese mixture into the batter.
- Bake for 50-55 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the cake cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.
- Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of almonds and 1/2 cup of pecans over the cooled cake.
- For the icing: In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 cup granulated sugar and 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder.
- In a heavy medium saucepan, bring 1/2 cup milk and 1/2 cup (1 stick) butter to a simmer over medium heat.
- Reduce heat to medium-low. Gradually whisk in the powdered sugar mixture until melted and smooth.
- Stir in 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until melted and smooth.
- Drizzle the warm icing evenly over the cooled cake.
- Let the icing set for at least 2 hours.
- Drizzle with caramel topping before serving.
