Comment préparer Turtle Cake From Scratch
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together 3 cups of flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and 1 teaspoon salt. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened butter and 2 cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in 4 large eggs one at a time, then stir in 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract.
- 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.
- Pour half of the batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
- Bake for 12-14 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- 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.
- Pour the caramel mixture evenly over the baked cake layer.
- Sprinkle 1 cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips and 1 cup of chopped pecans over the caramel layer.
- Pour the remaining batter over the caramel, chocolate chips, and pecans. Spread evenly.
- Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- While the cake is baking, melt the remaining 2 cups of semi-sweet chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl or double boiler.
- Once the cake has completely cooled, spread the melted chocolate evenly over the top.
- Sprinkle the remaining 1 cup of chopped pecans over the melted chocolate.
- Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving. Serve with vanilla ice cream or whipped topping, if desired.
