How to Make Grammy's Snicker Cake

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
  2. Prepare your favorite chocolate cake mix according to package directions.
  3. Pour half of the cake batter into the prepared pan and bake for 15 minutes.
  4. While the first layer bakes, prepare the caramel layer: In a medium saucepan, combine 1 (14 ounce) can caramel candies, 1/2 cup milk, and 1/4 cup butter. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until smooth and melted. Do not boil.
  5. Remove the first cake layer from the oven. Carefully pour the caramel mixture evenly over the baked layer.
  6. Sprinkle 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips and 1/2 cup salted peanuts over the caramel layer.
  7. Pour the remaining cake batter over the chocolate chip and peanut topping.
  8. Reduce oven temperature to 250°F (120°C). Bake for 20 minutes, then increase temperature back to 350°F (175°C) and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  9. Let the cake cool completely in the pan before cutting and serving. Enjoy!
