Cómo preparar Turtle Cake From Scratch

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together 3 cups of flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and 1 teaspoon salt. Set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened butter and 2 cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  4. Beat in 4 large eggs one at a time, then stir in 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the 1 cup of milk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
  6. Pour half of the batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
  7. Bake for 12-14 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  8. While the first layer bakes, combine the 14 ounces of unwrapped caramels and 1/2 cup of evaporated milk in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring after each, until completely melted and smooth.
  9. Pour the caramel mixture evenly over the baked cake layer.
  10. Sprinkle 1 cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips and 1 cup of chopped pecans over the caramel layer.
  11. Pour the remaining batter over the caramel, chocolate chips, and pecans. Spread evenly.
  12. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  13. While the cake is baking, melt the remaining 2 cups of semi-sweet chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl or double boiler.
  14. Once the cake has completely cooled, spread the melted chocolate evenly over the top.
  15. Sprinkle the remaining 1 cup of chopped pecans over the melted chocolate.
  16. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving. Serve with vanilla ice cream or whipped topping, if desired.
